One fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish By Dr. Seuss

Although I love books by Dr. Seuss, One fish Two fish Red fish Blue fish is not my favorite. This book is about a little boy and a little girl who go on an adventure and they see funny things everywhere. I did enjoy some parts this picture book but there were some aspects that I did not like. While this book provides very imaginative creatures, the plot was a little too random for me. One minute the author is describing a variety of fish and then on the next page is a completely different story about an imaginary creature. On the other hand, I did like how all the creatures were original. In addition, these illustrations fit perfectly with the storyline. Each character drawn fits the character being described flawlessly. I also like how the illustrator used simple coloring. The illustrations are filled with primary colors that make the black lining pop off the page. Dr. Seuss is very creative and it this is shown through his rhyming techniques and imaginary characters. Also, I love the message this book sends. The message of this book is that each day can be filled with a entertaining and crazy adventure as long as you use your imagination.
