Indeed they are oh Ang, my man
I know this truth for I'm a fan
As Horton I once saved the Who's
I saved them once and here's the news
To share the world is practical
I found this out in Seussical
For JoJo was a special Who
Who saved the Who's with Horton too
As for the Grinch, he also featured
Though now he's a far nicer creature
And Hortons egg belonged to Mayzie
A flighty bird, and also lazy
All Seuss was there, including Cat
(He also brought his stripy hat)
So all combined we added song
To liven up the happy throng.

To answer this was like a breeze,
so come along, Next Question please?

Next question? That we know with ease!
The banks of Banksville stole our cheese,
How will we trim our Christmas trees?

I do not trim my trees with cheese
Cheeses on trees does make me sneeze
To top it all the Whos from Whoville
Insist upon that goose, tinsel, and revel
The ads are already starting now
Before Halloween is even over, Zow!


I can take Seuss anyday, it's true that is no task!
Keep me away from holiday shopping season hell is all
I ask.

:oops: :pray: :shrug:

:bow: :bow: :bow: to Alatar.

Next Question:

So we have the Who's world (whose world? Who's world. (sorry, I was Fox-in-Socksing out there for a minute)), which exists on what is a dustspeck in Horton's world. And at the end of Horton Hears a Who we discover another world on a dustspeck within that world. So one could assume the possibility of worlds within that world, and one could also assume that Horton's world may exist on a dustspeck in some larger world, which exists on a dustspeck in some larger world, et cetera ad infinitum.
So in which of these worlds does the Cat in the Hat exist? Or Fox in Socks?
Or us, for that matter? Are any of these worlds supposed to represent our own?

Cat in a hat - in French it's chat chapeau - in Spanish, it's a gato in a sombrero
And really does it matter in which world I do exist
As long as silly monkeys are not among my midst

You see those hairy beasts who sit up high in trees
Have stolen my gredunza with its handles numbering three

I searched up high I searched down low but never could I know
How silly little monkeys could hide my treasure so

So see it doesn't matter in which world I do exist
For silly little monkeys have got me really pissed

Perhaps one day, if you be so kind, to come and look with me
To find my old gredunza with its handles numbering three

To seriously answer your question! The Cat in the Hat is in our world, cause he interacts with real people. Horton's world contains the Jungle of Nool, which isn't in our world, and the Who's live on a speck in Hortons World. Hence there are at least 3 worlds, potentially more!

My question, asked before and never properly answered by serious Tolkien people, so lets have a more creative answer.

Aragorn and the company are attacked by Wargs near the Moria Gate. The morning after the battle the bodies of the dead wargs have disappeared, leaving behind undamaged arrows expect for the one that caught on fire as it flew.

So, where did these magic wargs come from and why didn't Sauron have a whole army of them at Minas Tirith?
