Advantages: fun, anarchic, helps with reading, dynamic, reads well aloud Disadvantages: none
a way that can leave more traditionally minded parents flabbergasted at the complete nonsense that gets uttered.
The genius of Dr Seuss lies in the fact that his books stay just about this side of sane, while retaining the free, rather manic, hyper quality of a child running high on their own creativity and laughter.
"The Catin a Hat" is amongst the relatively more conventional of Dr Seuss stories, in the sense that it actually has a clear storyline: the story involves two normal human children, in a normal house, and only when their mother goes out on a wet, boring day, the Seussian magic starts with the appearance of a certain Cat. The cat plays tricks, shows off, involves children; and finally lets out of a box two Things which bring the mayhem a few levels up. I love the fact that they are just called Things (Thing one and Thing ...
Advantages: MAKES YOU LAUGH Disadvantages: FOR CHILDREN REALLY
The CatIn The Hat- not just for Children, I find this hilarious!
I first came across this film when my boyfriend bought me it as a present one day. I sat down to watch and found myself not just laughing the whole way though but repeating all the funny voices! With Mike Myers as the voice over, it adds to the comedy of the film!
The Film
This film came out in 2004 and was released as an animation film which is certainly correct! The film starts with two children who live with their mother and on a cold wet day they find themselves bored with nothing to do.
The daughter is very sophisticated and enjoys being her mothers pet, whereas her brother who is older than him is very opposite. He finds himself sliding down the stairs in sleeping bags and being generally mischievous.
The cat then comes in and starts off the fun ...
Advantages: The props and furniture etc are bright and chunky making its very unusual and funny to watch! Disadvantages: Sally and Conrad's mum have an admirer who is a disgusting man who wants to send Conrad away.
When I first watched the 'Catin the Hat' I was a bit younger than I am now but still I find it very humorous now I am about 7 years older. Mike Myers acting is obviously spectacular even though he is playing another mammal. The two children accompanying him are also very good and confident.
The film consists of Sally and Conrad alone at home while there mum is at work, they are bored with no games to play and out pops the Cat with props and fun to boost their day in a way they had never imagined!
They face fun, sadness, anger and a whole lot of mess but with the help of the Cat's helpers 'Thing One and Thing Two' they might just be lucky in making it all back to normal again.
Overall in my opinion the film is great for the whole famiily as it covers all emotions and teaches children about promises and love. Definitley a great buy! ...
