Book Overview

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - Unavailable for almost 20 years, a little-known Dr. Seuss book about careers gets a fresh new look

Wildly imaginative and told in rollicking rhyme, this beginning reader about careers could ONLY have been written by Dr. Seuss Featuring a mix of real jobs (like firefighter, doctor, teacher, farmer, etc.) and Seussian ones (including perfume smeller, fishbone boner, bass-drum banger, and roller coaster owner), it will incite plenty of giggles while planting the seed of a serious idea: that everyone needs to do something in life, and there are LOTS of choices Fully illustrated with charming new art (featuring a multicultural cast in nontraditional gender roles), this is a great choice for home and classroom use

Beginner Books are fun, funny, and easy to read Launched by Dr. Seuss in 1957 with the publication of The Cat in the Hat, this beloved early reader series motivates children to read on their own by using simple words with illustrations that give clues to their meaning. Featuring a combination of kid appeal, supportive vocabulary, and bright, cheerful art, Beginner Books will encourage a love of reading in children ages 3-7.

Be a Noodler or Tromboner

This book take a fun and rhyming look at lots of jobs someone can have when they grow up. But as this is Seuss, some of these professions are little strange and fanciful (and some are grammatically wrong such as tromboner instead of trombonist).But while this book keeps asking the reader what they want to be, it ends by telling them that they don't have to decide right now.This is a fun book for learning to read and learning a bit about the world, but it should not be taken verbatim.
