Horn Book

Information about the North and South poles is disseminated, faux-Seussian style, by the Cat in the Hat with the assistance of Thing One and Thing Two. Topics range from patterns of light and darkness to native peoples ("You ask, are they nuts?"). Though it's basically correct, the information is superficial and skewed by forced rhymes. Everyone's smiling, though. Reading list. Glos., ind.
