You're only old once!: A book for obsolete children / by Dr. Seuss.

Seuss, Dr. (Author).

Summary:

A man goes through a hilarious battery of tests at his annual checkup. This book on what it's like to get older is ideal for Seuss fans of advanced years. With his unmistakable rhymes and signature illustration style, Dr. Seuss creates a classic picture-book ode to aging in You're Only Old Once! On a visit to "the Golden Years Clinic on Century Square for Spleen Readjustment and Muffler Repair," readers will laugh with familiar horror at the poking and prodding and testing and ogling that go hand in hand with the dreaded appellation of "senior citizen."
