As a kid, I found this to be a very disappointing sequel. The whole idea that in trying to clean up a mess, you keep making things messier, I found pretty disturbing. Perhaps I was particularly sensitized to the issue of environmental pollution as I probably read this as a child in the late '60's.

For: Cat in the Hat/Seuss fans; readers wanting an exciting book.
Possible red flags: making messes around the house; may be too anxiety inducing for some readers.

The first book was definitely better than this one. I never read Dr. Seuss books when I was younger although I didn't enjoy this book as much as the first one, I still would have enjoyed this book when I would have been a child.

I like this one more than the first - the tiny cats sway things in its favour

The Cat in the Hat returns with more antics that stress the children.
