Publisher Description

The Dr. Seuss classic that first introduced Horton the Elephant!

Don’t miss the Netflix original series Dr. Seuss’s Horton!


Beloved by generations for his kindness and loyalty, Horton the Elephant is one of the most iconic and honorable characters in children's literature—as well as the star of two books and a short story by Dr. Seuss (Horton Hatches the Egg, Horton Hears a Who!, and "Horton and the Kwuggerbug.")

In this book—the comic classic in which Horton utters the line "I meant what I said, and I said what I meant. . . . An elephant's faithful, one hundred per cent!"—we see his integrity rewarded with a surprise ending that will delight readers of all ages. Told with Dr. Seuss's signature rhymes and trademark illustrations, this is a tale that will be enjoyed over and over, by reader and listener alike. It makes a perfect gift for birthdays and holidays, and is ideal for sparking discussions about kindness, values, and loyalty.

    Horton Hatches the Egg

    It is probably unusually for a 74 year old man to read a children's book. When I was a young boy between the ages of 5 and 18, I had a lot of children's books I received from my Aunt Mary. She was a librarian for the County of Los Angeles. This is one of the books I truly enjoyed. So at my age or maybe the beginning of my second childhood, I still enjoy it.
