The Way I Feel is a rhyming book about feelings that children feel through different situations. Cain covers disappointment, anger, jelousy, and happy, among many other feelings. At the end of the book, she writes that you never know how you are going to feel but all the feelings are a part of you. This book has beautiful illustrations and is perfect for children learning about poetry.

This book features Dr. Seuss extending congratulations and giving advice as one heads off to Great Places in the direction he or she chooses with the knowledge and wisdom that he or she has acquired.  

One’s quest necessitates making decisions that can lead to success or can lead to a standstill, but the important thing to remember is to not worry — soon things will start happening if one perseveres.  Even so, sometimes making the right decisions in life can be perplexing and daunting to the point that it seems useless to go on.  But one must not acquire a defeatist mindset and wind up waiting (and accomplishing nothing) in The Waiting Place.  The Waiting Place is filled with many people and shouldn’t be one’s final destination. 

One’s name is inconsequential.  Persistence, perseverance, and sometimes going in a new direction, are factors that foster one’s success.  By employing them, Dr. Seuss states that success is 98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed!
