Publisher Description: Dr. Seuss and Philosophy delighted thousands of readers by demonstrating the insights of these children's classics through a playful engagement with the philosophical tradition. In More Dr. Seuss and Philosophy readers will be offered a vision of the good life through the world of Dr. Seuss. Whether it's stoicism and care of the self in Did I ever Tell you How Lucky you Are?, facing our own mortality in You're Only Old Once, or the value of compassion, building communities, and resolving conflicts in the parables of Horton the elephant, King Derwin of Didd, or the Butter Battle Book, the essays in this book focus on living well through the wisdom of Dr. Seuss and other philosophers.
