　　This classic Seuss title stars a happy-looking quadruped fromthe shores of Lake Winna-Bango who has the most amazing antlers andthe kindest disposition. Alas! Everyone, but everyone, takesadvantage of his generosity, and before long he has three-quartersof the animal kingdom nesting in the convenient perches atop hishead. ("They asked in a fox, who jumped in from the trees, / Theyasked in some mice and they asked in some fleas.") You might thinksomeone would take pity, but nobody seems to like an oddball, andall Thidwick gets for his trouble is complaints and contempt.Unable to cross the lake when winter threatens, he looks all set tostarve--and then things get even worse. He is saved from certaindeath just in time, swims the lake, and joins the herd again. Onereason this Seuss is so good: it has a moral, but the moral isn'tpressed too far and the exuberant linguistic fun isn't subservientto it. (Ages 4 to 8) --Richard Farr --This text refers to theHardcover edition.
