Publisher's Summary

Here is the incomparable Dr. Seuss' story of an unnamed "you" whose travels through the world involve a series of ups and downs. His ultimate success, however, is "98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed!"
(P)2007 Random House, Inc. Listening Library, an imprint of the Random House Audio Publishing Group

What the critics say

"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....Seuss' message is simple but never sappy: life may be a 'Great Balancing Act,' but through it all 'There's fun to be done.'" ( Booklist)

My favorite Dr. Seuss piece!

I was not overly impressed with the soundtrack but loved John Lithgow's delivery. He doesn't disappoint.

would be amazing without the music

I love the story, I love the narrator, and the background music distracts from the experience.
Children's audio books don't need music, just a great reader.
