Oh, The Places You’ll Go! by Dr. Seuss
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A gift on my high school graduation… something I will always treasure. It answers all of life’s questions for a young one trying to decide their future!

As a children’s book, the rhyming and cartoon-like at helps keep focused attention. But it’s the words that are so simple, yet so evocative in their minds. Certain stanzas stay with you. People quote it both in fun and in sincerity when thinking about what to do.
It’s books like this that help children figure out that reading is not just educational, it’s fun. I don’t have children, but I’ve read it to a few younger cousins and some kids I babysat from time to time. The expressions on their face make it worth it.
Give it a shot as an adult if you never did as a child.
Like a lot of people, I love to give this as a graduation gift.
