		Horton is an instantly recognisable Dr Seuss story - with all the fun, fizz and frivolity - but it has a special added something: soul.

		If Horton Hatches the Egg is one of Dr Seuss's less well-known tales, it is in fact the book that first brought him celebrity as a children's author after years spent doodling around with fiction while a political newspaper and advertising cartoonist.

		Horton provided the central metaphor for an article called "Hatching the Egg: A Child-Centered Perspective on Parents' Rights." In the article, I first articulated my vision of a child-centered approach to children and the law.
		In Horton Hatches the Egg, I coined the term "gestational father" to refer to someone who, like Horton, invests in a baby before it is born by giving respite and help to the mother.
		If Horton had gone to court when the elephant baby hatched, seeking recognition under ALI 2.03(1) (c) as a de facto parent, he would find that his devotion to the egg was legally irrelevant.

		The bird then disappears for months, but Horton, whose motto is "I meant what I said and I said what I meant; an elephant's faithful, 100 percent", never abandons his post, despite the amazing (and amusing) difficulties this entails.

		The second "Horton" book, too, was faithfully adapted into a cartoon when, in 1970, producer/director Chuck Jones — another of Seuss's "Private Snafu" collaborators — turned it into a prime-time animated TV special.
