The Foot Book
''The Foot Book: Dr. Seuss's Wacky Book of Opposites'' is a children's book written by Dr. Seuss and first published in 1968.
''The Foot Book'' is intended for young children, and it seeks to convey the concept of opposites through depictions of different kinds of feet. The text of ''The Foot Book'' is highly stylized, containing the rhymes, repetitions, and cadences typical of Dr. Seuss's work. An important lesson to learn from reading this book teaches the young reader that you should not judge anyone because of what they look like or in this case, their feet.
''The Foot Book'' is Seuss's first in the Bright and Early Books series, intended for children too young for books in the Beginner Books series.〔Fensch, Thomas. "The Man Who Was Dr. Seuss: The Life and Work of Theodor Geisel", New Century Books, 2001, p. 156. ISBN 0-930751-11-6〕 It was also his first book after the death of his wife Helen Palmer Geisel, and Seuss put in eight-hour days working on it as a way of coping with the loss.〔 ''The Foot Book'' was extremely successful, and in 1997, it was in its 52nd reprinting.〔Fensch, pp. 156-157.〕
== Inspiration for others ==
Like many Dr. Seuss books, ''The Foot Book'' has inspired others. Big Brother Mouse, a publishing project in Laos, drew on ''The Foot Book'' to develop ''Baby Frog, Baby Monkey'', a book for very young readers that uses rhymes, repetition, and the pairing of opposite words in the same style.
