An introduction to the world of Dr. Seuss--for babies and babies-to-beArtfully adapted almost entirely from Ted Geisel's work, this introduction to the world of Dr. Seuss is a must for expectant parents and new babies In simple rhymed verse, author Tish Rabe extolls the joys awaiting newborns when they meet the Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, Yertle the Turtle, the Great Birthday Bird, the Grinch, and twenty-five other beloved Seuss characters. Written to be read aloud to babies and babies-to-be (yes, babies in utero ), the book includes a brief introduction by Mrs. Dr. Seuss--Audrey Geisel--revealing how she and Ted were fascinated by the idea that babies could hear sounds while still in the womb--and might actually respond to the voices of their parents.
