Oh The Places You'll Go

Upon graduating college in our family it has been a tradition for our parents to give each of us the book "Oh the Places You'll Go" by Doctor Seuss. It's fun because the story obviously takes you from where you've been to where you are and eventually where you'll go in the future. So even though graduating college is a huge step into adulthood, getting that book was a nice way of making you feel proud of your accomplishment, all big and grown up, but also keeping that feeling of a kid in there too. Just a nice book (for sentimental reasons) for what can be a big scary transition.
