| rdfs:comment | - I Had Trouble in Getting to Solla Sollew is a book written by Dr. Seuss. This is a simple narrative of a young person finding out that we must choose our battles and that we are sometimes the ones that place ourselves in unlovely situations in the first place. An excellent read on a day that you or your youngster feels defeated by the world. It offers a springboard for a quasi-philosophical discussion about who we are, where our troubles come from, and how to negotiate between dire and paltry problems. Please be aware that the book's ending is confrontational and would be best metered with a "how else can we approach a bad situation" question.
- Solla Sollew is an Odyssey-tale told in the first person by a young narrator who experiences troubles in his life (mostly aggressive small animals that bite and sting) and wishes to escape them. He sets out for the city of Solla Sollew ("where they never have troubles / at least very few") and learns that he must face his problems instead of running away from them. He then goes back home to deal with his "troubles," arming himself with a big bat and resolving that "Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!"

| abstract | - Solla Sollew is an Odyssey-tale told in the first person by a young narrator who experiences troubles in his life (mostly aggressive small animals that bite and sting) and wishes to escape them. He sets out for the city of Solla Sollew ("where they never have troubles / at least very few") and learns that he must face his problems instead of running away from them. He then goes back home to deal with his "troubles," arming himself with a big bat and resolving that "Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!" The journey includes several fantastic encounters, some with mild political implications. In one instance, the protagonist is forced to haul a wagon for a bossy companion. ("'This is called teamwork. I furnish the brains. You furnish the muscles, the aches and the pains.'") In another scene, he is drafted into the army under the command of the fearsome (and, ultimately, cowardly) General Genghis Kahn Schmitz, who abandons him at a critical moment.
