The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins
The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins | Dr. Seuss
5 posts | 19 read
As topical today as when it was first published in 1938, this book tells of Bartholomew Cubbins (from Caldecott Honor winner Bartholomew and the Oobleck) and his unjust treatment at the hands of King Derwin. Each time Bartholomew attempts to obey the king's order to take off his hat, he finds there is another hat on his head. Soon it is Bartholomew's head that is in danger . . . of being chopped off! While The 500 Hats is one of Dr. Seuss's earliest works, it is nevertheless totally Seussian, addressing subjects that we know the good doctor was passionate about: abuse of power (as in Yertle the Turtle), rivalry (as in The Sneetches), and of course, zany good humor!

I‘ve never met anyone else who knows of this Seuss, but it was on my shelf as a kid and I reread it often.

AlaMich @Reviewsbylola There‘s also Bartholomew and the Oobleck, which is a ton of fun to make with kids. It‘s slime AND science!! https://www.thebestideasforkids.com/how-to-make-oobleck/ 5y
KarenUK No idea too! 🙋🏻‍♀️ 5y
AlaMich @Reviewsbylola @KarenUK I don‘t know why it‘s so obscure. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 5y

Read this to the kindergarten class I taught earlier this week. It was my first time reading this particular Dr Seuss book, & I really wasn't a fan. I understand that times were different when it was written but the repeated efforts to murder Bartholomew for wearing a hat were extremely uncomfortable. I'm not entirely certain what the moral was supposed to be either? Absolutely will never add this one to my library.

This popped into my head as soon as I read the prompt for today. Bartholomew Cubbins sure fits the bill! Although Seuss has a whole bunch of crazy, memorable names. #booktober #bestcharactername
