Summary

If you think the alphabet stops with Z, you are wrong。 So wrong。 Leave it to Conrad Cornelius o'Donald o'Dell (with a little help from Dr。 Seuss) to create an entirely new alphabet beginning with Z! This rhyming picture book introduces twenty new letters and the creatures that one can spell with them。 Discover (and spell) such wonderfully Seussian creations as the Yuzz-a-ma-Tuzz and the High Gargel-orum。 Readers young and old will be giggling from beginning to end 。 。 。 or should we say, from Yuzz to Hi!

This was one of my favorite Dr。 Seuss books in my childhood, so I couldn't resist re-reading it today when I came across it in a box of stuff from when my son was little。 It does not disappoint! It's wildly imaginative, and the rhymes are particularly clever。 Highly recommended。 This was one of my favorite Dr。 Seuss books in my childhood, so I couldn't resist re-reading it today when I came across it in a box of stuff from when my son was little。 It does not disappoint!

One reason why Dr。 Seuss remains a favorite among children is they look and read full of whimsy and fun。 The children may miss that they can be subversive。 Specifically, Dr。 Seuss is rarely about teaching some lesson。 Life the good doctor say is about living and imagining。 Lessons can resume in a few minutes for now let it go and giggle。 On Beyond Zebra is a non-sense book。 Smarty pants Conrad Cornelius O’Donald o’Dell is so sure of himself。 He knows all 26 letters of the alphabet and there is n One reason why Dr。 Seuss remains a favorite among children is they look and read full of whimsy and fun。 The children may miss that they can be subversive。 Specifically, Dr。 Seuss is rarely about teaching some lesson。 Life the good doctor say is about living and imagining。 Lessons can resume in a few minutes for now let it go and giggle。 On Beyond Zebra is a non-sense book。 Smarty pants Conrad Cornelius O’Donald o’Dell is so sure of himself。 He knows all 26 letters of the alphabet and there is nothing left to learn。 I (the reader) know better。 I am not going to just belittle the little boy with his black tie, tied just so。 His hair properly cut and combed。 The child has it pat from A Apple through R rat to the end of the job, Z Zebra。 I know better because I can imagine more。So I will lead the young know it all into a fun place of silliness and wonder。 Of places and animals not thought of by young Conrad Cornelius o’Donald o’Dell。Hang on there is much to see, little to learn except that there is life beyond, and on beyond Zebra。 。。。more

Still my most favorite Seuss book。 I vividly remember checking it out from the school library in kindergarten and being amazed at how amazing it was--it's only taken me 20 years to finally purchase a copy for myself!Many of these critters remind me of lumberjack's fearsome and legendary creatures, especially the Wumbus, which is halfway to a slide-rock bolter, and that made me quite happy。I also personally relate to the Quandary, at least up to a point。 Although, this is the ONE illustration tha Still my most favorite Seuss book。 I vividly remember checking it out from the school library in kindergarten and being amazed at how amazing it was--it's only taken me 20 years to finally purchase a copy for myself!Many of these critters remind me of lumberjack's fearsome and legendary creatures, especially the Wumbus, which is halfway to a slide-rock bolter, and that made me quite happy。I also personally relate to the Quandary, at least up to a point。 Although, this is the ONE illustration that I feel like was different in the earlier version I read? No underwater scene with the kids, rather just a giant Quandary on the left page against black or blue, and the story on the right page。 Maybe I'm confusing it with another story。REGARDLESS, this is the bestest Seuss for my use。 。。。more

I liked this one。 It tells about how people are afraid to let their imaginations run free。

OH MY! So much fun! Young Conrad is so proud to have learned his whole alphabet, from the letter A is for Ape on through Z is for Zebra。 But then his young friend points out, "Why stop there?" On an adventure they go as they discover 19 new letters and the animals they stand for as only Dr。 Seuss can describe them。 I love how at the end of the book, he gives you the list of new letters again along with a new one created by Conrad which has yet to be named。 Children of all ages can have fun tryin OH MY!

Classic Dr。 Seuss。 No real story or blindingly apparent moral, just rhyming and fun pictures。 Not my favorite, but fun。

Fun read

This is a book about the letters that come after Z。 New letters are made up to sort of sound like a blend。 Each stands for made up names of unique fellows you have not heard of with unique crazy characteristics。 My 5 year old was hooked and went along with Dr。Seuss’s imaginary letter-world 。 I am still not sure if he knows these things are real or imaginary。 Though as an adult reading it I found it a bit tedious, my kid enjoyed it and was amazed by the new symbols and all the crazy animal sounds This is a book about the letters that come after Z。 New letters are made up to sort of sound like a blend。 Each stands for made up names of unique fellows you have not heard of with unique crazy characteristics。 My 5 year old was hooked and went along with Dr。Seuss’s imaginary letter-world 。 I am still not sure if he knows these things are real or imaginary。 Though as an adult reading it I found it a bit tedious, my kid enjoyed it and was amazed by the new symbols and all the crazy animal sounds it stood for。 。。。more

Read with my son, he enjoyed this book but it was kind of blah to me。 Illustrations were imaginative and up to Seuss par。 The letters and some of the stories that went with the letters were lacking, in my opinion。

I used to be a sucker and end my alphabet at Z, but man, there is so much more out there, and this book helped teach me the expanded alphabet。 Although I haven't tried it, I bet it works wonders with the ladies。 I used to be a sucker and end my alphabet at Z, but man, there is so much more out there, and this book helped teach me the expanded alphabet。 Although I haven't tried it, I bet it works wonders with the ladies。 。。。more

Sooo long。 I usually like Dr Seuss but this one is kind of boring。 It didn't hold my son's attention and I just got tired of the nonsense letters。 Sooo long。 I usually like Dr Seuss but this one is kind of boring。 It didn't hold my son's attention and I just got tired of the nonsense letters。 。。。more

Conrad Cornelius o'Donald o'dell is just learning his letters and he works his way all the way up to z for zebra。 He thinks he knows everything now that he knows all of the letters。 That is until his friend creates new letters that are beyond z for zebra。 This book can spark kids creativity and imagination through hilariously funny made up letters。 I would recommend this book to all kids in elementary school。 Conrad Cornelius o'Donald o'dell is just learning his letters and he works his way all the way up to z for zebra。 He thinks he knows everything now that he knows all of the letters。 That is until his friend creates new letters that are beyond z for zebra。 This book can spark kids creativity and imagination through hilariously funny made up letters。 I would recommend this book to all kids in elementary school。 。。。more
