They include ′The Bippolo Seed,′ in which a scheming cat leads an innocent duck to make a bad decision; ′The Rabbit, the Bear, and the Zinniga-Zanniga,′ about a rabbit who is saved from a bear via a single eyelash; ′Gustav the Goldfish,′ about a fish that grew and grew; ′Tadd and Todd,′ a tale about twins; ′Steak for Supper,′ about fantastic creatures who follow a boy home in anticipation of a steak dinner; ′The Strange Shirt Spot,′ about a spot of dirt that gets everywhere; and ′The Great Henry McBride,′ about a boy whose far-flung career fantasies were bested only by those of Dr. Seuss himself.
The perfect book for any Seuss fan, young or old!
About the Author
Theodor Seuss Geisel - better known to millions of his fans as Dr. Seuss - was born the son of a park superintendent in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904. After studying at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, and later at Oxford University in England, he became a magazine humorist and cartoonist, and an advertising man. He soon turned his many talents to writing children's books, and his first book - And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street - was published in 1937. His greatest claim to fame was the one and only The Cat in the Hat, published in 1957, the first of a hugely successful range of early learning books.
