The Cat in the Hat

 


Is the Cat in the Hat everyone's favourite Dr Seuss character? He is certainly mine - and I loved the Cat in the Hat books as a child. The Cat in the Hat is one of the most recognisable and loved characters from children's literature. We have a range of activities to help you celebrate this playful cat and his mischievous Thing One and Thing Two.

“It is fun to have fun
But you have to know how.”
Dr Seuss, The Cat in the Hat.
