I love how dedicated Horton is to protecting the Whos, finding them again, and insisting on their voices being heard! The story raises questions about the nature of human knowledge and what is necessary to justify a claim to have knowledge of something. These issues are discussed in the philosophical field of epistemology. Epistemology investigates the theory of knowledge, specifically its origin and nature. We may know something but sometimes find it difficult to explain why; we may know something to be true when others know it to be false. Epistemology engages in trying to help us explain why and how we identify our knowledge.

Choose kindness with Horton the elephant and the Whos of Who-ville in Dr. Seuss’s classic picture book about caring for others! The new matte finish cover makes it a perfect gift! Attractive illustrations and exciting verse – both very dynamic, always moving always going somewhere new; both very strange, silly and bizarre – all in an extremely accessible, engaging and compelling (and let’s not forget educational) way – which creates Dr Seuss’s fantastically immersive world.I absolutely love this book. No matter how many time's I read it throughout the years it's always incredible :) I have read several Dr. Seuss books in my time and this one is another wonderful book that will most definitely be passed down through your family for generations to come. From every picture to every rhyme, everything about it is just perfect. It's colorful and unique. The illustrations are large and lively. It's really fun to read aloud and it's easy for kids to remember the lines to read parts along with you. JoJo has an apathetic and introverted attitude, distinguishing him from the rest of the Whos who are more cheerful. Although he seems indifferent to his father, especially when Ned talks about being mayor, the truth is that he is so terrified of disappointing him that he never speaks in his presence, until he saves Whoville. Families can talk about Horton's compassion. Why does he feel the need to help small, vulnerable beings? What does this teach us about how to treat others in the real world? There are pets that are tall and pets that are small, but you can only choose one - you can't have them all! With pets ranging from the recognisable to the obscure, this Dr Seuss book is sure to delight children of all ages.

Horton Hears a Who! by Dr. Seuss | Goodreads

One of the villains (an eagle) is named Vlad Vlad-i-koff. In 1954, even liberal Dr. Seuss may have been catering to the notion that Russians were evil. DISCLOSURE: I own my copy of Horton Hears A Who by Dr Seuss. All opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own personal opinions.UPDATE: I just ran across a Guzer video story of a real man who can neither read nor write but who creates ultra-miniature sculptures which are smaller than the eye of a needle. He began to do this because when he was young, his teachers made him 'feel small'. The significance not to mention the charm of Horton Hears a Who! lies in the universality of smallness. Everyone knows what it is like to have been or felt small at some time in his or her life. For children it is where they still are. For adults, it may be a painful memory or a desire to protect their own children. But smallness invites protection, caring, compassion. Smallness needs to be heard. After reading Horton Hatches the Egg I came to an understanding that you need to read the sequel right afterwards which made the whole story better. This book can be a standalone but I believe if you read the first book then you get a huge understanding of who Horton is and why he is loyal and persistent. I cannot say which one is better but I believe when it comes this book Dr. Seuss was more creative and found his flow of creativity. Look through the text and find different synonyms for ‘said’ (e.g. humpfed, chatting, bellowing, snapped). And still as comforting as ever, is the analogy of this Big Guy up there somewhere - as caring and compassionate as Horton or Norman - inclining his ear to the plight of a beleaguered world like ours and PROMISING that we will not stomped out by a new Rampaging Elephant. After plenty of trial and tribulation, and noise created in a variety of ways, voices are eventually heard and Horton has the monkeys, the kangaroos and everyone else prepared to protect the Whos in their massive city for evermore.

Serious, deep stuff that our prefab, one-size-fits-all society now rushes through in its plastic, clinical and brutal attempts to mature us. No matter what, this book always brings a big smile on my face. It is absolutely amazing how one can memorize so many pieces from one book. I just love the rhymes and this colourful journey of the beautiful friendship between two species that have never actually met. In the fifties, my Mom was head librarian for our small-town library (politically, we were termed a Police Village, whatever that meant). How do you know if somebody knows what you know? Just because you think you know something, does that mean others know it too and agree with you?Brilliant, playful, and always respectful of children, Dr. Seuss charmed his way into the consciousness of four generations of youngsters and parents. In the process, he helped millions of children learn to read.Theodor Seuss Geisel – better known to millions of his fans as Dr. Seuss – was born the son of a brewer and park superintendent in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904.
