The all-star cast of readers–Kelsey Grammer, Dustin Hoffman, Walter Matthau, John Cleese, and others–promises an entertaining program. Nearly a dozen Seuss stories are read with nearly as many artistic approaches. Billy Crystal is over the top; John Cleese has impeccable comic timing; Ted Danson seems unimpressed by the Lorax. But Grammer comes across best. He gets the rhymes and delivers the verse with style. His energy, like Seuss’s, never flags and never seems forced. The production has an appealing, inventive combination of music and words. Have some fun with this audio–the producers did!
