About this product

Product Information

The Butter Battle Book, Dr. Seuss's classic cautionary tale, introduces readers to the important lesson of respecting differences. The Yooks and Zooks share a love of buttered bread, but animosity brews between the two groups because they prefer to enjoy the tasty treat differently. The timeless and topical rhyming text is an ideal way to teach young children about the issues of tolerance and respect. Whether in the home or in the classroom, The Butter Battle Book is a must-have for readers of all ages.

Reviews
"Dr. Seuss chronicles the feud between the Yooks and the Zooks from slingshots through sophisticated weaponry, until each side has the capacity to destroy the world. The language amuses, the drawings are zesty and humorous, and the demand for this book will be large."-- School Library Journal. "Provocative, packs an allegorical punch. The parade of increasingly elaborate (and ridiculous) armaments makes a telling point."-- Booklist., "Dr. Seuss chronicles the feud between the Yooks and the Zooks from slingshots through sophisticated weaponry, until each side has the capacity to destroy the world.

    Wacky Dr Seuss

    I like “The Butter Battle Book” and “The Sneetches”. I laughed and smiled and laughed. I’m 60 years old. I don’t really recommend these two in particular for children under 15 because seems too big an issue for the younger ones. I suppose anyone with a nip under their nose would find it very amusing. Just saying. A funny book. Better than a lot of junky books out their.

  • Scary but true and well told:

    Studying Dr. Seuss since he has passed away. I learned about it in a documentary about his life and how parents complained that he frightened their children during the Cold War. It was well written but better for adults, or obsolete children as he called us.

  • Who doesn't love Dr. Seuss?

    Love this book. My children had the vhs video and I wanted the actual book for my grandchildren.

  • a good title to emphasize how stupid war is.

    I bought this for a 6-year-old. I don't think it is appropriate for this age but a great book for older children and adults.

  • Wisdom and relevance found here!

    So relevant to politics and wars today! If only we could learn from Dr. Seuss the pointlessness of violence as a solution to disagreements.
