What’s better than a lost treasure? Seven lost treasures! These rarely seen stories by Dr. Seuss, published in magazines in the early 1950s, are now available in book form. The collection includes: - **The Bippolo Seed**: A scheming feline leads a duck toward a bad decision. - **The Rabbit, the Bear, and the Zinniga-Zanniga**: A rabbit 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**: A twin strives to be an individual. - **Steak for Supper**: Fantastic creatures follow a boy home for 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**: A boy’s far-flung career fantasies rival those of Dr. Seuss. An introduction by Seuss scholar Charles D. Cohen traces the stories' history, highlighting the evolution of Seuss's writing style and recurring themes, such as imagination and the perils of greed. With a color palette enhanced beyond the original magazine limitations, this collection is a must-have for Seuss fans, whether scholars or young readers. Dr. Seuss has been delighting children and helping them learn to read for over fifty years, ranking among the world’s top children's authors with nearly half a billion books sold worldwide.
