About the authors
Theodor Seuss Geisel—aka Dr. Seuss—is one of the most beloved children’s book authors of all time. From The Cat in the Hat to Oh, the Places You’ll Go!, his iconic characters, stories, and art style have been a lasting influence on generations of children and adults. The books he wrote and illustrated under the name Dr. Seuss (and others that he wrote but did not illustrate, including some under the pseudonyms Theo. LeSieg and Rosetta Stone) have been translated into 45 languages. Hundreds of millions of copies have found their way into homes and hearts around the world. Dr. Seuss’s long list of awards includes Caldecott Honors, the Pulitzer Prize, and eight honorary doctorates. Works based on his original stories have won three Oscars, three Emmys, three Grammys, and a Peabody.
Roy McKie (usually spelled "McKié"; October 8, 1921 – January 8, 2015) was an American illustrator of children's books, most notably under the Beginner Books imprint. He illustrated many books penned by Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss) under the pen name Theo. LeSieg ("Geisel" spelled backwards).

- Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2025I've been buying these books for children for many years. Usually on their 5th birthday. Such a meaningful and beautiful book/gift. Highly recommend..
- Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2024While clearing out old books I came across a book my daughter had filled out when she was 5. It was such a wonderful book to reflect on! I now have a granddaughter, grandson, new niece all born in the same year. These books are gifts for them, even though they just turned one, I didn’t want to pass this by.
Each page is colorful, with questions posed for a child in mind. Some have blanks, or multiple choice, pages to draw on, or circling choices. I see this as a book to enjoy discovering fun things about your child. My daughter learned to whistle! See page 50. Smile!
Great learning experience. Such an amazing book to reflect on 24 years later. This book is a treasure!
I will be giving my daughter her book so she can eventually share with her daughter.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2024I had this book as a child, and I love gifting it to others. Such a fun activity for kids to do - they get to answer all sorts of questions all about themselves. And then they get to read their very own "story". Many years later, it's still fun to revisit all of the silly things they said when they were little.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 20134/2017 Update: What a WONDERFUL keepsake this will be for our grandchildren! We LOVE Dr. Seuss in our home, where I'd babysat our three grandsons, prior to my daughter-in-law becoming a stay-at-home-mom (talk about a repeat of "empty next syndrome"!) When the oldest one began all day kindergarten years ago, we'd purchased this book and - seeing how much he enjoyed working on it - went ahead and purchased additional copies for the other two boys to have at the ready when it came their turn to start kindergarten. Well, I'm now coming back for a fourth copy of this terrific little book!
We've collected every single Seuss children's book, but there are three books in particular that we've now ordered four copies of, because they can be personalized by the grandkids to make them truly "their own"! This one, along with "I Can Write! A Book by Me, Myself" and "I Can Draw It Myself, By Me, Myselff" will become treasured keepsakes, little "snapshots" of where they were developmentally that they can look back on one day with a smile.
While the other two are terrific as well, this one is definitely our favorite. SIXTY pages just BRIMMING with fun facts your child fills in about him/herself, and be able to author his/her own little autobiography! This is somewhat along the lines of a baby book you'd receive as a baby shower gift, with pages where your child can trace his hand and foot, etc, but there's oh so much more in the way of fun facts for him/her to fill in to help them remember "where their head was at" at that age, with a little help from Dr. Seuss and many bright, colorful illustrations! Can't recommend this book highly enough!
We've thoroughly enjoyed being able to so closely participate in and observe our grandkids' growth and development, and finding new ways to encourage both. These books have been fun tools to use toward that end. We truly treasure our little guys - we'd take a dozen more gladly!
- Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2024My granddaughter discovered this in her daddy’s box of childhood books. She had fun reading his “story.” I was thrilled to find it on Amazon, and she was so excited when the new copy arrived at her house!
- Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2024This book is fun and educational. It teaches the child to look at its surroundings, gives interactive time with the parent. To me it was one of the best activity books for my children, and it still is for today's kids.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2024Good quality
- Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2024This is such a fun keepsake to read and fill in for littles. A great way to get them exploring the house, working on skills, having fun with an adult and way to read again. Your kiddo will feel famous having a book all about them!

5.0 out of 5 stars My book about Me!
excellent petit livre pour ceux qui apprennent l'anglais en première année de collège. On respire loin des tablettes... et pour les tout petits une activité et une découverte à chaque page. Même compter les boutons de ses pantalons, de ses gilets, manteaux etc... est un jeu passionnant! très amusant comme beaucoup de livres du Dr Seuss! Le quotidien et l'ordinaire sont pleins d'aventures il suffit de savoir regarder.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great
I had this book as a child and wanted my little boy to experience the fun i had filling it in.
Unfortunately this one had already been completed so wasn't in the condition i had been led to believe it would be.
However if you can find one in better condition it is a fantastic book for you and your child to complete together.

5.0 out of 5 stars A time capsule for childhood memories
This is such a great purchase for the Zuess lover in all of us.
I just gifted a copy to my nephew for his 5 the Birthday.
Just in time for him to be able to document the loss of his two front teeth. A treasure that kids can work to create themselves and share with the generations. A little time capsule for childhood memories with that magical Zuess flair that makes everything more fun.
