An excellent gift for young graduates, newly minted big brothers and sisters, or anyone experiencing a landmark life event, the fill-in-the-blanks book includes enlightening quotes from the original picture book about moving mountains—and even a page to draw the mountain—and reminders about life’s potential pitfalls. But it also includes lots of ways for kids to make the book their own—fun activities, simple writing exercises, yes-or-no questions, and pictures to finish.
Here are just some of our favorite activities from the book, out January 12.
“I’ll join the high fliers who soar to high heights.” But how will you get there? In a balloon? What will it look like? Will it have stripes, hearts, polka dots? There’s a whole page for children to draw and color in their own balloon or other mode of transport.
“Oh, the places you’ll go!” There are maps of the United States, the world, and even the solar system for kids to color in the places (and, yes, planets!) they want to visit. And it even includes little Pluto, which may no longer be a planet but is totally a place we’d still like to go.
“Some windows are lighted. But mostly they’re darked…” A windy maze accompanies the pages about coming “to a place where the streets are not marked.” And another maze awaits as young readers travel “onward up many a frightening creek.”
“Everyone is just waiting.” When they get to “The Waiting Place,” kids can check off the things they’re waiting for, like a birthday, snow day, a new pet, or maybe just some ice cream.
“When I’m in a slump, I’m not in for much fun.” And un-slumping yourself is not easily done, but kids can make a list of ways they can do just that—which is a helpful activity for readers of all ages.
“Fame!” They’ll “be famous as famous can be, with the whole wide world watching them win on TV.” But exactly what is it they will and won’t be famous for? Kids can brainstorm lists of both in this book.
“Kid, you’ll move mountains!” But how? By building things? Discovering things? Performing things? Something else? There’s a check-able list from which kids can select things they plan to do in their oh-so-bright futures.
“And will I succeed? Yes! I will indeed! (98 and ¾ percent guaranteed.)” Of course, they’ll need some sage advice from the awesome adults in their lives to guarantee their success, and there’s plenty of room for kids to record some of those shared words of wisdom. There are also blanks to collect signatures from people who will help them get to the places they want to go.
On top of all of these super-fun and insightful activities, there’s still plenty of whimsical Seussian rhyming and illustrations that make this an awesome read no matter your age.
