DR SEUSS NEW BOOK



Among Theodor Seuss Geisel's things set aside by his widow after his death was an unknown manuscript that would become a book being published posthumously under his pen name, Dr Seuss.

The classic children's author died on Sept. 24, 1991 at the age of 87. At the time, his widow, Audrey Geisel, was renovating their home in La Jolla, California, outside San Diego, and placed some of his work in a box. Years later, in 2013, she and his long-time assistant, Claudia Prescott, decided to have his drafts and sketches in the box appraised and discovered a project that would become his 46th book.

"What Pet Should I Get?" follows Dr. Seuss best-sellers such as "Green Eggs and Ham" and "The Lorax." His first major success was "The Cat in the Hat," published in 1957.

Interestingly, even though information released about this book says it will be published by Harper Collins, sources say there is still some dispute about publishing rights in Australia.  We will keep you posted.

This may be the cover........then again it may not....!
