Every wish is fulfilled on the First of Octember.

In this delightful book, Dr. Seuss introduces the youngest children to the concept of sight and seeing, looking at a range of everyday things from colours and cutlery to socks and underpants!

A boy imagines what it would be like if he had such things as duck feet, a whale spout, and an elephant's trunk.

Poses questions for pondering: "Would you rather be a dog or be a cat?", "Would you rather live in igloos or in tents?", "Would you rather be a mermaid with a tail instead of feet?"

Drawings and verse count the many things that are wrong one wacky Wednesday.
