Synopsis

Thidwick the big-hearted moose is happy his antlers “can be of some use” to a menagerie of animals who move in and make themselves at home. “A host has to put up with all kinds of pests. For a host, above all, must be kind to his guests.”

Packed with all the ingredients that have made Dr. Seuss so well loved over the last 50 years – riotous rhyme, bizarre creatures, zany artwork, off-the-wall humour, – this engaging fable about selfishness and selflessness is vintage Seuss at its very best.

Review:

“Dr. Seuss ignites a child’s imagination with his mischievous characters and zany verses.”

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 known as Beginner Books.
