Daisy-Head Mayzie is a children's book written by Dr. Seuss, although he did not illustrate it, nor was it published until 1995, after his death.
The book is about a schoolgirl named Mayzie who one day suddenly sprouts a bright yellow daisy from her head. It causes alarm in her classroom, family, and town, until an agent makes her a celebrity. The Cat in the Hat is seen serving as the narrator to this story who helps Mayzie to understand her problem and persuade her to go back home. The book has a mini-song titled "Daisy-Head Mayzie" which her classmates chant.
In 1995, prior to its actual publication, the book was adapted for television on TNT. This special can currently be found as a bonus feature on the Horton Hears a Who Deluxe Edition DVD.
