Hooray for Diffendoofer Day!
Hooray for Diffendoofer Day! by Dr. Seuss and Jack Prelutsky, illustrated by Lane Smith
Diffendoofer School is no ordinary school. Its remarkable teachers invent their own rules, lessons include yelling, smelling and laughing, and Miss Bonkers even teaches frogs to dance and pigs to put on underpants.
Then the pupils receive alarming news: they must pass an important test or their school will close and they will be sent to dreary Flobbertown. Luckily, Miss Bonkers knows that Diffendoofer has taught them something much more valuable than memorising answers—it has taught them how to think.
Developed from Dr. Seuss’s final unfinished story and completed by poet Jack Prelutsky, this energetic celebration of creative education combines playful rhyme, invented language and Lane Smith’s exuberant illustrations. A joyful school story for children, families and teachers who value individuality, curiosity and learning that leaves room for imagination.
