	Horton Hears A ... WHA???

	I got them all, but definitely some tricky ones in there. Why Horton Hatches An Egg rather than Horton Hears A Who? Why two Cat in the Hat books instead of another original Seuss? I couldn't remember what was in the pocket...splocket? sprocket? rocket? whocket? I also had trouble spelling Sneeches and ... dang, Seuss, why did you spell things so strangely? g

	"Fox in Sox." What do you mean, no? Oh... socks.

	♫ Got a wocket in your pocket, Keep coolly cool, boy! ♫

	I can't believe I missed "There's a Wocket in My Pocket", considering the helpful illustration! Favorite Seuss book not included: "Marvin K. Mooney, Will You Please Go Now?"

	My favorite Seuss books are "Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You?" and "Go Dog Go"

	Q_phever: gotta love west side story!

	Is it really a harm to accept "Horton Hatches AN Egg"? I thought Sporcle automatically overlooks things like that.

	Yertle the Turtle remains the best book ever written on the subject of turtle stacking.

	@MMayes: Go Dog Go was not by Dr. Seuss. It's by P. D. Eastman.

	"Cat in the Hat" not acceptable?

	packsoldier:	Oct 18th, 2012 at 23:55 GMT		8 points
	Since this quiz is extremely anal, I would also point out that the title of the actual book is "One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish". No commas.

	I tried all kinds of variations of "Horton sits on the egg"... oops, that's just a song title from Seussical

	I guess I can understand not taking "Horton hatches AN Egg," but could you at least consider taking misspellings like "Yurtle"?

	Had all but a couple of these when I was young (didn't get "Oh, the Places You'll Go" until I was about to go to college). And for all of the people concerned about "AN" vs "THE", you do realize that this quiz allows you to skip words like these. It took Horton Hatches Egg when I typed it. Thanks, tikalora, for the trip down memory lane!

	It was so tragic, the way they hopped on pop.

	I kept trying "Surfing with the Sneeches" before I realized that was the name of a play I worked on based on the book. I actually like it that the quiz requires things to be spelled right. Great quiz, now I want to go scoop up all these books at the library and read them again!

	Wocket in my pocket was always mine and my sister's favourite, we read that thing all the time. I remember we ripped out the page with the Bofa because he gave us nightmares. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlmyfyjc7hM&t=1m0s

	A quiz! A quiz! I wish you'd try/ Would you try it for some pie?/ Would you try it for some honey?/ Would you try it for a bunny?/ What's that you say?/ You took this quiz?/ I'm so happy that you did!

	I made something similar for a pub quiz one time. Great quiz, with some of the small exceptions noted above. I was definitely looking for Mr. Brown and The Butter Battle Book.

	"Smithers, there's a rocket in my pocket!"

	Love that you did Horton Hatches the Egg instead of Hears a Who. I always loved the egg one best. I even have a stuffed Horton that sits in a nest with an egg you can put stuff in.

	@cmkeller: Or on the subject of peaceful revolution against dictators, or of the power of the individual against the state, or of the perils of ambition, the consequences of vanity, and the pointlessness of egotism.

	@Vails: My comment was a Simpsons reference, which I assume was recognized by the folks who up-voted it.

	Seems to me a lot of us here are whining about the one they missed; just nice for them that they didn't miis the grinch. Noone realizes how good they have it these days. . .
