Horton Hears a Who Toys

Horton Hears a Who is in theaters now. After seeing the movie your kids will probably be enamored with the characters. Why not, it’s a fun part of being a child.

Don’t worry about heading to the store to pick up the latest Horton toy or stuffed animal; instead have them sent right to you. Your little girl will be sure to love playing with the characters. My bet is on the Dr. Suess Horton Blanket (pictured). Isn’t that the cutest thing you’ve ever seen?

Dr. Seuss: Horton Hears a Who! [Original Motion Picture Soundtrack]

$13.01

Horton Hears a Who! is a whimsical and zany film, and its soundtrack appropriately follows suit. Created by British composer John Powell (who is also credited with playing the "30 foot water system, euphonifaffamelophone, [and] trombugle" in the liner notes), the original score bounces between genres with all the energy of Dr. Seuss’ prose. Gothic choirs, Spanish tangos, string sections, big band horns, and ’70s-styled funk, all have there place here, as does the sort of fast, furtive music that so often underscores the action sequences in animated movies. The pieces are short, often only 60 seconds in length, but they flow together with a fluidity that rarely disrupts the album’s progress. Powell may not be conjuring up anything we haven’t heard before (that is, apart from the euphonifaffamelophone gizmo), but familiarity doesn’t keep Horton Hears a Who! from emerging as a smart, diverse, and often surprisingly classy soundtrack.
