COMING IN 2026—A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING BILL HADER AS THE CAT IN THE HAT

The Cat is back—along with some surprise friends—in this beloved classic by Dr. Seuss.

Dick and Sally have no time to play. It's winter and they have mountains of snow to shovel. So when the Cat comes to visit, he decides to go inside and to take a bath. No problem, right? Wrong! The pink ring he leaves in the tub creates is a very BIG pink problem when he transfers the stubborn stain from the bath onto Mother's white dress, Dad's shoes, the floors, the walls, and ultimately, over the entire yard full of snow! Will the kids EVER clean up the mess? You bet they will, with some help from the Cat and his helpers: 26 miniature cats (AKA Little Cats A-Z) who live inside the Cat's hat!©1958, 1986 Dr. Seuss Enterprises; (P)2006 Random House, Inc.

Critic reviews

"Highly recommended."--(starred) School Library Journal.

my first audible book

This was my very first book from audible. I had no idea what audible was, and i really thought it was one of those books that reads to you when you turn the pages. I had used a credit on this book. Once i realized it was only voices, and no animation or book to follow along, i was very disappointed. Now that i have more experience with Audible, i wish i could return this book for my credit. needless to say, lesson learned. I now enjoy many audible books. i wish they would add more to the collection. I started the leven thumps series only to find audible only had the first two books of the series. I want more.

Great Performance by Kelsey Grammar Again!

Kelsey Grammar reading Dr Suess, what's not to like really? Although this isn't at all my favorite top ten Dr Suess books, it's still delivers all my expectations in the Seuss department, and it's fun to have a sequel to a classic. I have to say that the pace at which Grammar reads the story is a little bit on the rapid side, which made it a less than relaxing experience to listen to this book. I think it may have even wound my kids up a bit, so this will not be part of our bedtime/naptime playlist.

The kids love it!

My kids love this book! We listen to it almost every day! Excellent narration by Kelsey Grammar
