After an investigation into the work, the library concluded the book is not eligible for removal due to the following reasons:

- “The book is a humorous and well-loved children’s book designed to engage children while teaching them reading skills,”
- “Since its publication in 1963, it has maintained its popularity and appeared on many “Best of” children’s book lists.”
- “Dr. Seuss was a prolific and celebrated children’s author who won the Pulitzer Prize among many other awards.”

The book is being retained in the children’s collection, according the the library, but as news of the unusual complaint spreads around the web, many are mocking the idea that Hop on Pop could even be considered for removal.
