Summary: The Cat In the Hat
Review: The Cat In the Hat is a fiction story that rhymes about two kids who can't go out and play because its to wet outside. During the story their gets house gets destroyed by 10 little cats in hats called things. He lets them in one by one to help clean up the house but ends up destroying it even more. The main characters are wasThe Cat In the Hat which has really tall hat and has a bowtie around his neck. Sally who is a young girl with short hair with a bow in it and a young boy but they don't tell his name. The setting is a house and it is daylight. The author tells the story in 1st person point of view. I think this book whould be even better if it wasn't so long.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Cat In The Hat
Review: This tape really disappointed me. It is just a story with pictures. I can read the book to my daughters and they would like that much better than hearing it from a video tape. It is awful. My recommendation is, don't waste your money!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You Won't Be Able to Stop Rhyming
Review: This book is fantastic, of course. I can't say anything bad about it, except that THIS BOOK WILL EAT YOUR BRAIN.

After reading it a couple times a night for weeks on end, I found myself *thinking* in rhyme. Everything I read entered my head in a rhyming rhythm! I couldn't stop! It will drive you nuts, but at the same time it is funny. It's only fair to warn your friends and family beforehand. Every time it rains you will think "I know it is wet / And the sun it not sunny / But we can have lots of good fun / That is funny"!

This book is a great way to start discussions with your kids about emotions and how their actions make other people feel.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: No. No. Don't do that
Review: This book teaches kids that when they arent suppose to do somethign and they do it anyways that they might have to suffer the consequences that go along with there actions. Although there aren't really talking cats and talking fish's this was a good way to teach them about making smart choices.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Wrong Version
Review: How was I to know they would come up with this new, pathetic version and give it the same title/packaging as the original? I was super-eager to purchase this for my 2-year old (and myself), but was sadly disappointed at the change in format. They need to make a clearer distinction between this and the 1972 animated classic. What a rip-off!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A CAT IS NOT JUST ANY CAT!
Review: If it is a Dr. Seuss book, it is definitely good! "The Cat in the Hat" is, by now, a classic and all-time favourite of children everywhere. There is something about the wording and rhyme that stays forever in a young child's mind and heart, and they are sure to remember the Dr. Seuss books long after they have outgrown their childhood. This one is about a very strange cat indeed and is sure to bring a few giggles from both you and your child. This was one my three daughters' most read books of the Dr. Seuss collection, along with "Green Eggs and Ham." In turn they were read to their children. Both books, and all Dr. Seuss books, are highly recommended and are sure to delight any youngster.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Do not waste your money
Review: I received this movie yesterday for my niece and viewed it before giving it to her. I was VERY DISAPPOINTED. All it was was the book being read to me. No animation, just scans of the book. I can read the book to her and have more enthusiasm than the person on the tape and I can have the quality time with her.

IT IS NOT EVEN WORTH THE SHIPPING LET ALONE THE PRICE OF THE TAPE.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not the classic I remember!
Review: This is NOT the movie I thought it was going to be. The person from amazon that wrote a review was WAY off. If you are looking for the classic Cat in the Hat that was animated with fun music this NOT it. I bought it after reading the Amazon review and was very disappointed. It's someone reading the book..same pics from the book. If I could return this movie I would. My 3 yr old has watched it more that once that's why it gets 1 star.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Where is the music?
Review: This is not the same "Cat in the Hat" classic - there are NO songs, just a terrible reading of the book, a bunch of still pictures and a whiny fish to boot! (I much prefer Mr. Krinklebaum from the original) The reviewer rating above must assume that this is the classic original. The only reason it even gets one star is that my three year old found it midldy entertaining - only because we have read the book so many times! She did not, however, jump and dance like she does to the other - ...

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: DREADFUL!
Review: Unless you look back fondly on shows like Clutch Cargo, or if there is absolutely *NO* chance you will ever actually read the book to your child(ren), then --by all means-- avoid this absolutely dreadful video book.

Not animated in any sense of the word. It's hard to find even one nice thing to say about it...impossible, in fact.

Do yourself a favor: save the money, buy a copy of the book, and read it to your kids...they'll appreciate it more.
