Reseñas de la Crítica

"Don't be fooled by the title of this seriocomic ode to success; it's not 'Climb Every Mountain,' kid version. All journeys face perils, whether from indecision, from loneliness, or worst of all, from too much waiting. Seuss' familiar pajama-clad hero is up to the challenge, and his odyssey is captured vividly....Seuss' message is simple but never sappy: life may be a 'Great Balancing Act,' but through it all 'There's fun to be done.'" ( Booklist)

Truly fantastic performance.

Truly fantastic performance of a classic book. This motivational classic is great for all ages. The performance makes it even more amazing!!

A call to imaginative arms

Nice and calming even for adults. I wish it were longer. Nice narration. Great words!

For all newborns and graduates.

I give this to all newborns and graduates. Has all the reality of life's lessons as only the good Dr. could relate.

My favorite pick-me-up

for approximately the last 10 years of my life, I have used this audiobook as my own personal cheerleader. as a 12 year old I would listen to it 2-3 times in a row when I needed that extra boost and motivation. Now, at 21, I still listen to it on my way to work occasionally when I need that extra something. I nearly have it memorized. The book itself is a wonderful reminder that life WILL get hard or boring or tiring, but we are still living it. We are going places. The performance by Lord Faarquad- oops I mean John Lithgow- is stellar and hilarious. Absolute 10/10 on this one.

Lovely effects!

Any additional comments?

My 5-6 year-old son loves the narration. We have the book, but as English is not my first language, I wanted a good narration. And this is a very good one, very entertaining, with nice sound effects.

The book is pretty short. What I've done several times is I open the book, put the audio, and move through the pages while it's being narrated.

Match made in Heaven!

Dr Suess plus John Lithgow- perfection!! Best cheer up for any day! 5 stars!

Very Positive

enjoyed listening. the positivity of the story makes me want the physical book. to see pictures.

Good book, bad production

It's very annoying when publishers add stupid intro and outro at the beginning and the end. The book is 6 mins total and kids listen to it 2, 3 or more times at a time. This fluff ads about another minute (16%!).

Do you really think that they are interested in your stupid copyright disclosures and trademarks? Use your brain and be more considerate of your little audience.

Audible should really allow to skip this nonsense...

Refreshing

Refreshing even as a college student. This is the first book I bought on Audible yeeears ago (not that I'm really that old), and Dr. Seuss' words disseminate wisdom even now.

I cry every time I read it.

I sought out this narrator specifically, he makes the book what it is. amazing and a favorite.
