 A favorite first book May 4, 2010
medialint (Oakland, CA)
At three months my son isn't old enough to be able to speak words yet, but he sure is trying! Too young to speak English perhaps, but not too young to hear a story and look at the pictures. I've been reading various books for him with high contrast illustrations and this is by far the favorite book for both myself (dad) and my son. My son giggles and laughs when I read this. As soon as he sees the first page ("you can think about red, you can think about pink ...") he gets excited. We have several board books of Seuss and some other authors and we enjoy all of them but Oh, The Thinks You Can Think! is simply a masterpiece. It's so much fun, the high contrast pictures really capture my son's attention and it's the perfect length for his young (short) attention span.
 Great introduction to imagination (not thinking) December 11, 2008
Lawrence M. Sanger (Ohio)
This is a wonderful book. It might not be the very best of Seuss, but it has all the trademark silliness and inventiveness, and very readable wordplay that is so attactive to so many kids. It's one of the simpler of the Seuss books, not as simple as "Green Eggs and Ham" but not as complex as "Horton Hears a Who." The theme of the book is imagination, and what you can think (dream) up. The littlest kids, who aren't yet engaging in pretend play and demonstrating their own rich imagination, might not get the message, but they'll still appreciate and learn from the language.
Oh, the thinks you can think, if only you try! August 10, 2008

This is largely a nonsense book, of course - most of what Seuss gives as examples are his classic made-up creatures. Bloogs blowing by, and a Rink-Rinker-Fink.
But what a nonsense book! It's a lot of fun to read and talk about after. It may not be the most famous Seuss book, but it's certainly one of the best.

This was one of my son's first Seuss books, and is one of my favorites. In the classic Seuss funny, whacky style, with its catchy rhymes, it gets the reader thinking about how important imagination is. This book is a celebration to the use of imagination, and who best to celebrate it that the very imaginative Dr. Seuss??? Definitely a great buy!

While this is not quite Dr. Seuss' most inspirational book, it is certainly up there and is the type of book happily devoted to creativity. The illustrations are fun and silly, as is the text, but there is still that smidgen of proper Seussian wisdom.
