"This is a great book about being nice to others but at the same time, knowing when enough is enough. It shows that its important to have a big heart but at the same time confront your friends. Rhyming is always great for young kids too! "
— Claudia (4 out of 5 stars)
" I loved this as a child, it is one of my favorite Dr. Seuss books. "
— Angie, 2/19/2014" I'm not usually a fan of these books but this was a good story. The ending surprised me because it was a bit dark, especially for Dr. Seuss. "
— Danielle, 2/17/2014" Well gosh. I think the uninvited 'horn-guests' would have been better off if they'd been (politely) asked to leave. Thidwick shouldn't be teaching kids to be a doormat! And please note, these are antlers, not horns. Antlers shed & regrow annually, horns are permanent. "
— Cheryl, 2/9/2014" Another great Dr. Seuss classic! See what happens when you're too nice - people walk all over you, quite literally in Thidwick's case... "
— Amy, 2/3/2014" Loved it until I neared the end - with the hunters and their guns. Oh but there was a shred of hope as Thidwick shed his horns. But the other animals still got stuffed. Would have made a great read-aloud if not for the end. "
— Ms., 1/31/2014" now i have to write a 10 page paper on this book. WHY GOD "
— Kat, 1/29/2014" A great read for codependents. Also those freeloaders deserved to be stuffed because they didn't raise a finger to save themselves or the moose. "
— Randy, 1/16/2014" Okay its a frickin' Dr Seus book, but it was a favorite when I was little, had to put it on the list. "
— Adam, 1/2/2014" Another awesome book by Dr. Suess. This one has a beautiful meaning too! "
— Ali, 11/2/2013" I live that the hunters are a bunch of pompous white guys from Harvard. My Harvard friends were not amused. "
— Jen, 10/29/2013" The sacrifice of kindness shows forth and works out for the best in the end! "
