A BOY finds a magical hat.

When the BOY imagines who might wear such a hat, the CAT IN THE HAT appears and sings about the power of imagination: “Oh, The Thinks You Can Think!”

Everyone joins to celebrate the power of imagination.

In the Jungle of Nool, HORTON THE ELEPHANT hears a call for help from THE CITIZENS OF WHOVILLE who live on a planet the size of a speck of dust; HORTON tries to help by placing the speck on a soft clover blossom.

The SOUR KANGAROO and her baby tease HORTON for talking to a speck of dust: “Biggest Blame Fool.”

A group of mischievous monkeys, the WICKERSHAM BROTHERS, join in teasing HORTON.

In the whole jungle, only his neighbor, GERTRUDE McFUZZ, will say something nice about HORTON.

Despite all, HORTON promises to protect the WHOS, because, as he says, “A person's a person no matter how small.”

But the Law of the Jungle is cruel, and, led by the SOUR KANGAROO, HORTON is ostracized for being different.

The BOY finds himself in the story as JOJO, the son of WHOVILLE'S MAYOR and his wife. The whole town sings “Here on Who” to introduce themselves to HORTON.

But JOJO's “Thinks” have gotten him expelled from school, and his parents wish the had instructions on “How To Raise a Child.”

JOJO is sent off to take a bath, but the CAT IN THE HAT encourages him to imagine all the things that his tub of water might be. The tub overflows, and JOJO's Thinks have put him in trouble again.

Poor JOJO is feeling “Alone in the Universe,” but so is HORTON, and so they become special friends.

GERTRUDE laments that HORTON never notices her, probably, she suspects, because of her inconspicuous plumage: “The One-Feather Tail of Miss Gertrude McFuzz.”

MAYZIE LA BIRD arrives with the BIRD GIRLS: “Amayzing Mayzie.”

GERTRUDE envies MAYZIE's thrilling appearance and is grateful for some self-improvement advice that MAYZIE tosses her way.

MAYZIE's advice leads GERTRUDE to DOCTOR DAKE who lets her take pills for amazing feathers from the pillberry bush.

The pills work their magic, and GERTRUDE celebrates being “Amayzing Gertrude.”

The WICKERSHAM BROTHERS snatch the clover away from HORTON . . .

. . . and hand it off to the eagle VLAD VLADIKOFF who drops it into a field of clover a hundred miles wide!

HORTON gamely undertakes the nearly impossible task of recovering the lost clover.

GERTRUDE comes to show off her new plumage (“Notice Me, Horton”), but HORTON is too absorbed in the hunt for the WHOS to pay her any attention.

Later, HORTON hears MAYZIE singing the blues from a nest, where's she's unhappily minding an egg, and she tells HORTON to remind himself “How Lucky You Are.”

MAYZIE persuades HORTON to watch over the egg for her while she takes a short break of an hour or two.
