The Bippolo Seed and Other Lost Stories by Seuss

The Bippolo Seed and Other Lost Stories by Seuss

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Discover the lost Seuss! These rarely seen Dr. Seuss stories were published in magazines in the early 1950s and are finally available in book form.

What's better than a lost treasure? Seven lost treasures! This book includes:

* "The Bippolo Seed," in which a scheming feline leads a duck toward a bad decision
* "The Rabbit, the Bear, and the Zinniga-Zanniga," about a rabbit who is saved from a bear by a single eyelash
* "Gustav, the Goldfish," an early rhymed version of the Beginner Book A Fish Out of Water
* "Tadd and Todd," about a twin who is striving to be an individual
* "Steak for Supper," in which fantastic creatures follow a boy home in anticipation of a steak dinner
* "The Strange Shirt Spot," the inspiration for the bathtub-ring scene in The Cat in the Hat Comes Back
* "The Great Henry McBride," about a boy whose far-flung career fantasies are bested only by those of Dr. Seuss himself

An introduction by Seuss scholar Charles D. Cohen traces the history of the stories, the emergence of the writing style we now associate with Dr. Seuss, and recurring themes like the importance of the imagination or the perils of greed. This is a collection that no Seuss fan will want to miss.
