The people who worked in the library recommended The Cat In The Hat a lot, But Shrieky who needed to read it did not!
The book had the advantage of being more or less at a level where he was able to phonetically figure out what most of the words said, and when he couldn't figure them out, he could always scrutinize the pictures for clues (Although frankly it was a good job he'd managed read the word "Cat" without too much difficulty, because there was no way he would have recognized that from the drawings).
The problems which he was finding were more thematic than anything else, the main one being that the book was basically about home invasion and the menacing of a poor aquatic creature which would die if it was dropped out of the bowl which was currently being balanced precariously on top of a rake along with a cake and a toy boat and some other things.
The point where the Cat in the Hat decided that his definition of fun involved creating this extremely perilous situation for the fish, and then hopping up and down to compound his torture? Was the point where Shrieky decided it would be appropriate for him to fling the book across the room in a silent fit of rage. He would have shrieked some for good measure, but the Librarians had already had to talk to him about that a few times, and he didn't want to get kicked out.
