Illus. in full color. "Don’t be fooled by the title of this seriocomic ode to success; it’s not ‘Climb Every Mountain, ‘ kid version. All journeys face perils, whether from indecision, from loneliness, or worst of all, from too much waiting. Seuss’ familiar pajama-clad hero is up to the challenge, and his odyssey is captured vividly in busy two-page spreads evoking both the good times (grinning purple elephants, floating golden castles) and the bad (deep blue wells of confusion). Seuss’ message is simple but never sappy: life may be a ‘Great Balancing Act, ‘ but through it all ‘There’s fun to be done.’"—(starred) "Booklist."

"The doctor of written rhyme created a fantastic book of encouragement with Oh, the Place You Will Go. Our kids are under 10 yrs, and we purchased a couple of these books so their teachers, coaches... influential people in their lives can write a note for them to read when they leave school and start walking up their own hills. Beautifully written and wonderfully illustrated; a book to treasure."
"I purchased this book for my son who is turning 18 this week and he has just finished high school. He is not sure where or what he wants to do and I needed some way to help him on his journey without being a "nagging mum". This book was exactly what I was looking for. It has so many words of wisdom and written in a way that a young adult will understand and take guidance from. 10 out of 10 Dr Seuss!"
