The Cat in the Hat is back in an all-new adventure. The first of two Dr. Seuss Graphic Novels by RH Graphic, the beloved feline who doffs a candy stripes chapeau returns to make another boring day tons more fun for Sally and her brother Conrad. Seeing that disapproving family pet Fish is living inside a tiny little fish bowl, Cat decides to turn the entire house into one gigantic aquarium! With the help of Things 1 & 2, Cat will flood Sally and Conrad's home all for the sake of merriment. But don't worry! He's got a plan for getting the house back ship shape before mom and dad get home!
Tiny Titans' co-creator Art Baltazar goes solo in this 2024 graphic novel in a way only he can execute. Cat Out of Water is full of joy, fun and absolute devotion to the source material. Just don't blame me that the level of awesomeness is ramped up to 11!
Though I know that this book is brand new, I was a tiny bit confused as to whether this story was a continuation of the original books by Dr. Seuss or a reboot. Though Fish and the kids know Cat, he introduces Things 1 & 2 to the residents of the house. Is this just because of the flare in which Cat does everything? Or does this occur at a time when Sally and Conrad haven't met those candy floss haired associates of Cat's? It's not really made clear.
For all you purists out there, this is an officially licensed graphic novel by the Dr. Seuss estate. A very fast read that captures the spirit of the Cat in the Hat very well with one glaring exception. Unlike an original Dr. Seuss book, there's no rhymes! No rhymes, at all!
If the young readers in your life enjoy this graphic novel recommended on Amazon for readers ages 5-8, then be sure to check out the second brand new Dr. Seuss Graphic Novel: The Grinch Takes A Vacation by Kaeti Vandorn.
Worth Consuming!
Rating: 8 out of 10 stars.
