The Dr. Seuss books are often called "modern fairy tales." They are, sort of.

Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel, 1904-1991) had in mind the goal of providing the same sort of "moral message" that some fairy tales provide. But he does so by being completely silly and surreal rather than being horrific or scary. His books are entertaining, subversively poking fun at parents and authority. But the underlying moral of his stories is one of doing right, being kind, and not hurting others by our selfish actions.

No, "Cat in the Hat" is not a fairy tale. It is a children's book written by Dr. Seuss. Fairy Tales typically involve magical elements and are passed down through generations, while "Cat in the Hat" is a modern story created by a single author.

What qualifies as a fairy tale?

A fairy tale is a story, often intended for children, that features fanciful and wondrous characters such as elves, goblins, wizards, and even, but not necessarily, fairies. Fairy tales are often traditional; many were passed down from story-teller to story-teller before being recorded in books.
