DVD Reviews of The Best of Dr. Seuss
DVD Review: Suicide? On a cartoon? Really?
Summary: 1 Stars
Like S. Hill, I was shocked to see the fish suicide bit in Horton Hatches the Egg. I really wish my three-year-old hadn't seen that.DVD Review: Dissapointed
Summary: 1 Stars
Theodor Geisel. Not Dr. Seuss. We could not endure watching one complete episode except for the Looney Tunes, "Horton Hatches an Egg." This is not a "for kids" production in our view. It is just a little on the crass side with the animation, the production, the writing (not charming and funny Dr. Seuss). We found some of the material inappropriate for our kids, under 5. And Horton's trunk is drawn falic, especially in the scene where he sneezes - good ol' Looney Tunes.DVD Review: Great for the kids
Summary: 5 Stars
This has great classics for the kids to watch especially during the school celebrations for Dr. Sues birthdayDVD Review: Seuss in the class
Summary: 5 Stars
It's nice to have videos of Dr. Seuss to use when studying his writing in the classroom. DVD Review: Butter Battle
Summary: 3 Stars
I have only watched the Butter Battle video because I use it for a Cold War lesson in my classroom. Pretty good
Description of The Best of Dr. Seuss
Contains three Dr. Seuss favorites - Horton Hatches the Egg, The Butter Battle Book, and Daisy Head Mayzie. A must-have for Seuss fans of all ages!What parent doesn't get a little kick out of reading Theodor Geisel's (a.k.a. Dr. Seuss) brilliantly charming little tomes to their kids? What child doesn't love hearing the stories--repeatedly, even? The three tales here--"Butter Battle Book," "Daisy-Head Mayzie" (a story discovered after Geisel's 1991 death), and "Horton Hatches the Egg!"--all offer up Dr. Seuss's distinctive storytelling, but each is decidedly different. Produced by Ralph Bakshi, they're excellent animated examples of how children's books should be translated into video. The "Butter Battle Book" offers a witty and sharp allegorical war tale: the Zooks and the Yooks battle over which side of the bread should be buttered. In a twist, this one has a cliffhanger ending and not the kind of shiny-happy-people conclusion most people associate with Dr. Seuss. "Daisy-Head Mayzie," which was posthumously released with much fanfare, is a simple story of a girl who suddenly sprouts a flower atop her head. Disconcerting to her, to her teachers, and to her family, the flower is the cause of peer teasing. Meanwhile, an older classic ("Horton Hatches the Egg!") presents a story with more rudimentary animation (but still an excellent adaptation) about an earnest and loyal elephant. Like Lewis Carroll's Alice, he means what he says, and says what he means: he's faithful. For ages 5 and older. --N.F. Mendoza
