Learning to count is made fun in this crazy tale of a dog, alion and a tiger all showing off how many apples they can balanceon their heads as they skip, walk the tightrope and roller skatetheir way through the book. This title belongs to the "BeginnerBook" series developed by Dr. Seuss, in which the essentialingredients of rhyme, rhythm and repetition are combined with zanyartwork and humour to create a range of books that will encouragechildren to learn to read. Originally published under the pseudonymof Theo. LeSieg, this book is being relaunched with a new coverdesign which reveals, for the first time, the true identity of theauthor - Dr. Seuss himself.
Bright, simple illustrations give almost-readers the confidence to step into the world of reading in this book that "combines phonics and word recognition, making sounds and letters recognizable. Highly recommended." --School Library Journal (starred) The accompanying cassette has a listening side for nonreaders and a read-aloud side with page-turn signals for youngsters just learning to read. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
Another silly title from the Beginner Books series (the same place that Dr. Seuss and the Berenstains hang their hats), I Wish That I Had Duck Feet follows one little guy's dreams of borrowing all sorts of useful appendages from the animal world. "I wish that I had duck feet. And I can tell you why. You can splash around in duck feet. You don't have to keep them dry." But each time he imagines something new--those duck feet, a prickly pair of deer horns perfect for playing football, a spraying whale spout to keep his classroom cool--he realizes that it's not always all it's cracked up to be. "BUT... If I had a long, long tail, I know that Big Bill Brown would tie me in a tree! He would! Then how would I get down?" A vacuuming mom and pipe-smoking dad are straight out of '60s suburbia (Duck Feet first came out in 1965), but the playful illustrations and catchy rhymes still make for good fun. (Ages 4 to 8) --Paul Hughes --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. 作者简介: Theodor Seuss Geis
