What this book is about

Dr. Seuss's final book before his death has become the definitive graduation gift—a rhyming celebration of all the exciting and difficult things that await. Seuss doesn't pretend life will be easy: there are Slumps and Waits and Lurch moments alongside the victories. But the overall message is irreplaceable encouragement: you have brains in your head and feet in your shoes, and you can steer yourself any direction you choose.
