The Cat in the Hat and Other Dr. Seuss Favorites Reviews:
The background music gets a bit too loud 
2009-10-29 - The background music gets a bit loud at times. We got used to it eventually. Otherwise the stories are great and so are the performances. My 8y.o. son can't get enough. What's great, we could follow up with the books. I would highly recommend it for elementary school children.
The Cat in the hat 
2009-01-06 - Kids like to listen to this a lot, we down loaded it to the computer and they love it.
Great idea but background music interferes 
2009-01-04 - My daughter loves Dr. Seuss so I immediately ordered this CD and the Green Eggs & Ham version as well. It's a great idea, but the background music is too loud at various points so it's hard to understand the words while the CD plays. That is our only complaint. I was able to decipher what the reader was saying, but my four-year-old had trouble and lost patience with it after a few minutes. I'm hoping she'll grow to appreciate it as time goes on.
Great Stories! 
2008-08-27 - Really Great Stories! My kids loved them. Gertrude McFuzz is fabulous and John Lithgow was superb as the reader. In fact all of the cast were excellent in their roles.
The Big Brag, Thidwick, How Lucky You Are are easily perpetual favorites. We played these over and over.
A not to be missed collection for young listeners.... ages 1 to 100!
Good purchase, perfect for the car 
2008-03-22 - The cat in the hat on this CD, with perfect piano accompaniments at key moments, is just perfect. Could not do better.
I don't like the other stories as much, but that one in itself is worth the purchase.
