New Releases by Theodor Seuss Geisel

Even in silhouette, the fun and fanciful art of Dr. Seuss is instantly recognizable in this Bright and Early Book classic: "a bug, a balloon, a bed, a bike. No shapes are ever quite alike." Looking at ordinary shapes is great when seen through the eyes of the remarkable Dr. Seuss, but of course it''s the extraordinary shapes that really make an impression. Would you want to be shaped like a BLOGG? Combining brief and funny stories, easy words, catchy rhythm, and lively illustrations, Bright and Early Books are an ideal way to introduce the joys of reading to children.

Dr. Seuss tells three rhyming tales featuring the extended family of the Cat in the Hat in I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today! And Other Stories. The Cat''s son shows bravado in "I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today!" while his daughter gets a bit carried away imagining "The Glunk That Got Thunk." And we look back at one of the Cat''s ancestors for a tale about tails in "King Looie Katz." This lesser-known collection of classic Seussian silliness will be a welcome addition to the libraries of fans of all ages! From the Hardcover edition.

Dr. Seuss and the Cat show that reading is fun-even when you don''t look at the words!-in this classic Beginner Book. "The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you''ll go." Whether reading in bed or in purple or brown, reading is fun-even upside down. And whether reading about hoses or roses or owls on noses, I Can Read with My Eyes Shut is a hysterical way to discover the joy of books. Originally created by Dr. Seuss, Beginner Books encourage children to read all by themselves, with simple words and illustrations that give clues to their meaning. From the Hardcover edition.

Working in conjunction with Dr. Seuss Enterprises, Checker is pleased to present volume 3 of the Dr. Seuss series. Rare artwork from this classic illustrator is presented in archival-quality format, with illustrations collected from public and private collections across the country. These books collect a myriad of eccentric short stories, fantastic creatures and alternate Seussian histories for commonplace things.

Before writing his first children''s book And to Think that I Saw It on Mulberry Street, published in 1937, Geisel worked as a political cartoonist, an advertising illustrator and a documentary film-maker. Checker collects some of the rarer, never before published cartoons created by Geisel. Includes magazine and book illustrations, advertising illustrations and other rare pieces.

Colorful illustrations help demonstrate the sound of each letter in the alphabet.
