My favorite book

The Picture Book Everyone Should Own


Oh the Places You’ll Go by: Dr Seuss is one of my favorite books of all times. The book was just a book to me when I was growing up, but now that I am older it has become a light in my life. Dr. Seuss was an amazing writer and is one of my heroes and someday I would love to own all the books he wrote. In the story it may just seem like a little story about things that will happen when going around but it really is about life. The story takes you through life, the good and the bad, the happy and the sad, ups and downs and all arounds. You make choices in your life like if you want to or not want to go down a street; you choose your life and what you do.

Life isn’t easy and it tells you in the book. Things will be going so great for you and then out of nowhere things can go wrong. “And when you're in a Slump, you're not in for much fun. Un-slumping yourself is not easily done” You get reminded and told that everyone has those, you can either stay there and don’t choose what to do and wonder around lost and confused, or that you are better than that. The book tells you and reminds you how great you are and that you are not the type of person to do so, that you will choose the right and find the light.

Sometimes you will be alone and sometimes you will be surrounded by people, sometimes you will do great things and sometimes you will do something no one notices. There are moutons to be climbed and this book reminds you of that. A quote I always have with me a lesson Dr. Seuss taught me “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the [one] who'll decide where to go.”
