It's the literary equivalent of buried treasure--seven rarely seen stories by Dr. Seuss! Originally published in magazines between 1948 and 1959, they include The Rabbit, the Bear, and the Zinniga-Zanniga, about a rabbit who is saved from a bear via a single eyelash; Gustav the Goldfish, an early, rhyming version of the Beginner Book A Fish out of Water; Tadd and Todd, a tale passed down on a photocopy to generations of twins; Steak for Supper, about fantastic creatures who follow a boy home in anticipation of a steak dinner; The Bippolo Seed, in which a scheming feline leads an innocent duck to make a bad decision; The Strange Shirt Spot, the inspiration for the bathtub-ring scene in The Cat in the Hat Comes Back; and The Great Henry McBride, about a boy whose far-flung career fantasies were bested only by those of Dr. Seuss himself. For each story, Seuss scholar/collector Charles D. Cohen offers a brief introduction that explores recurrent themes and images, such as fish and twins. With a color palette that has been enhanced beyond the limitations of the original magazines, this is a collection of stories that no Seuss fan will want to miss!
