Description
There'a Wocket in my Pocket is yet another prime catch in the vast sea of delectable Dr. Seuss books.
It'difficult to find a Dr. Seuss book one wouldn't recommend highly, and this is no exception. Seuss'simple rhymes are consistently as amusing as they are useful; his books are bastions of creative nonsense that simultaneously encourage the joy of wordplay.
AUTHOR BIOGRAPHY
Dr. Seuss was born Theodor Geisel in Springfield, Massachusetts on March 2, 1904. After attending Dartmouth College and Oxford University, he began a career in advertising. His advertising cartoons, featuring Quick, Henry, the Flit!, appeared in several leading American magazines. Dr. Seuss'first children'book, And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street, hit the market in 1937, and the world of children'literature was changed forever! In 1957, Seuss'The Cat in the Hat became the prototype for one of Random House'best- selling series, Beginner Books. This popular series combined engaging stories with outrageous illustrations and playful sounds to teach basic reading skills. 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 kids learn to read.
Why Our Experts Love It
There is a Yeps on the steps, the nooth grush on his toothbrush, the yottle in the bottle and Nureau in the bureau....
Those are just some of the strange things a little boy is talking about that live in his house in the Dr Seuss book A Wocket in my Pocket
We love Dr. Seuss, and we love the approach he takes in his books with alliteration, rhymes and just enough silliness to keep the kids interested.

Reading with your child is a great way to spend quality time. Reading is an important activity to foster language skills and help your child learn new information. Long before a child can speak, an infant is learning the melodies and sounds of language. They are learning to understand words and pair pictures of objects with the name of the object. In addition to language skills, reading with your child helps improve their attention and builds curiosity. We want children of all ages to hear ‘adult, complex sentences’ so alternate reading a book as you typically would (reading all the written words) with the tips described below.
Infants – 2 year olds: point to the pictures and emphasize the name of each picture (one word at a time). Your intonation and melody plays an important role in your child’s attention to the book at this age.
2-3 year olds: read the story as written but ask questions along the way to ensure that your child understands what is happening in the story. This also allows them to be active “readers”
3-4 year olds: ask your child to tell you about the pictures/predict the story first. Then read the words on the page. This is a great way to help foster their story-telling abilities.
