'From there to here, from here to there, funny things are everywhere.' In this
hilarious exploration of simple concepts such as colours, numbers and opposites,
Dr. Seuss presents a crazy world of boxing Goxes and winking Yinks that drink
pink ink!
Adapted from one of Dr Seuss's bestselling titles, this delightful board book
explores some of the funny things that exist in the Seuss's fantasy world. Along
the way, young children are introduced to colours, counting, opposites and rhyme.
Ages 4-7.
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 successful range of early learning books known
as Beginner Books.
From there to here, from here to there, funny things
are everywhere. In this hilarious exploration of
simple concepts such as colours, numbers and
opposites, Dr. Seuss presents a crazy world of
boxing Goxes and winking Yinks that drink pink ink!
Age 4-7.
