The works of Dr. Seuss are known for their imaginative creatures, landscapes, and language. Why, his name has even led to the creation of the adjective “Seussian” to describe something playful, inventive, fantastical, or whimsical. Possibly the most purely Seussian Seuss is “There’s a Wocket in my Pocket” which consists solely of imaginary creatures, rhyming nonsense, and nothing else getting in the way. Some of the great words you’ll encounter: Wasket, Woset, Bofa, Yottle, and Nooth Grush

From Aaron's list on nonsense in children’s books.
