1. Scrambled Eggs Super!
One of the most talented and most-read authors in American history, children's author and illustrator Theodor Geisel became a household name when he published his first children's book in 1957, a version of the classic Mother Goose rhymes entitled Hop on Pop. Geisel would go onto publish dozens of books, including some of the most-beloved classics in the children's literature genre.
Geisel was not only passionate about children's books, but was also a writer and artist for early children's magazines. Geisel's characters, including the lovable lazybones created in his early 20th century cartoons, would go on to inspire his much beloved characters, the Cat in the Hat, Wacky Wobbly Witch and McElligot's Pool.
Although he worked with the United States Army during World War II (working as a cartoonist and writing training films), Geisel would later go on to found Beginner Books in response to the dearth of good books available for very young children. The imprint was a huge success, becoming a staple in millions of American homes during the 1960s and beyond.
2. I Can Read
I Can Read with My Eyes Shut! is a 1962 children’s book written by Theodor Geisel under the pen name Dr. Seuss. It is a classic Seuss book and is probably his funniest one.
This book is about a cat who falls asleep while reading and has crazy dreams. A bit of meta too as the book was written while Dr. Seuss was asleep in bed with his head on a stack of bed pillows.
3. McElligot's Pool
McElligot's Pool starts with one boy's slightly crazy theory about a pool that exists somewhere.. Then he goes in search of it through the mountains and the rain and the snow. He's sure it exists. And when he finds it, he's in for the adventure of his life. In fact, it's a pool so incredible, he and all the other kids in town can't wait to jump in.
First published in 1947 to immediate acclaim, McElligot's Pool has endeared itself to generations of readers young and old ever since and offers a heartwarming tale of friendship and overcoming fear and doubt.

4. Horton Hears a Who!
Pros:
- Read along with the book's CD
- Songs on the CD
- Illustrations and poem on each page
- Best seller for a reason
This is probably my favorite book of all time, and for good reason. Dr. Seuss sings on the audio CD that comes with the hardcover book, and there is a poem on each and every page.
It's basically a story about Horton, an elephant who hears a cry for help. Horton devises a plan to save all the tiny people of Whoville from getting squashed by an evil kangaroo.
Along the way, he meets two interesting characters called Sour Kangaroo and her sidekick, Sour Kangaroo Jr.

Pros:
- Consistently ranked among fans as a must-read
- The recurring theme of the story is that people should be kind to one another
This classic Dr. Seuss book was published in 1938 and is widely considered among his most popular works.

When the king promises Bartholomew his own kingdom if he can perform this feat, Bartholomew is persuaded and dons one of the hats that he is wearing. He also enlists the help of Duke Dodongo to help him wear the hats, although Duke refuses to wear the hat he is given.
Duke eventually takes Bartholomew’s kingdom when he denies that his dislikes the king. Crime, chaos, and mayhem ultimately ensue in Bartholomew’s kingdom. It is only when King Derwin admits that Duke likes to wear the hat that he is given that everything comes together.
7. The Sneetches and Other Stories
This book is a compilation of seven stories, all written by Dr. Seuss, one of the most popular American children’s book author/illustrator of all time. All seven stories were previously published in magazines.
"The Sneetches" and "A light in the Attic" have something more than a bit of genius to them. The first story is about a group of snooty birds who have stars on their bellies. The ones who don’t have stars on their bellies have a very low opinion of themselves.
One day, a miracle happens when a man comes to town and for the low price of seventeen dollars, anyone who wants to have a star can have the star pasted on the belly. Soon all the snooty birds have stars and the ones who didn’t want them have been left out. To rub salt into the wound the rich snooty birds refuse to sit on the same tree branch (because they all have stars).

The story is about Yertle, the king turtle, who sits on his throne pondering how high he can possibly sit. He makes his turtles sit on the turtles that are below them, and the turtles make the turtles below them sit. This goes on and on, until the turtles start pushing each other down and cause the pyramid to collapse.

He’s talked into trying them by a bunch of enthusiastic people, and finds that green eggs and ham are, after all, quite tasty.

His cartoons and children’s books have gone on to sell over 600 million copies in 21 languages, making Ted Geisel one of the most successful children’s authors of all time. He wrote stories that became beloved films and an Oscar-winning song, yet Ted Geisel was an enigmatic figure who wanted, more than anything to live in anonymity.
His wife, Audrey Geisel, protected his privacy until her death in 2014. Even the National Medal of Arts which President Clinton bestowed on Geisel in 1996, did not satisfy the man or his wife, who had him wear an enormous fake mustache and beard to accept the award in his place.

36. The Butter Battle Book:
Pros:
- Important message
- Great for educators
- Can teach life lessons
- Parents and children will love
- Bright pictures that promote discussion
The Butter Battle Book is one of my favorite books because of its simple story that actually teaches a really important life lesson. It's a story about the Cold War, though you would never know it by reading the book.
However, Seuss uses the idea of a simple battle between two people who disagree about spreading butter on toast. One person smears the butter on top while another spreads the butter underneath, and the conflict that happens in the story is hilariously stupid.
It’s as if you're reading about the most ridiculous battle on earth and may laugh aloud at the silly disagreement. Don't be fooled: This is a beautifully crafted story that teaches kids about the Cold War and how we should all get along with each other.
37. Oh, the Places You'll Go!
If there is one book that will always be relevant in a software developers life, it’s this, Oh, The Places You’ll Go!
