＂A plain horse and wagon on Mulberry Street grows into a story
that no one can beat!＂ In this tale, Young Marco allows his
imagination to run riot as he travels home from school one day, to
the extent that a horse and cart is soon transformed into a chaotic
carnival of colourful creatures in his own mind. This new cover
reprint of Dr. Seuss''s first book features the distinctive red
border design which instantly identifies the work with such
Seussian classics as ＂The Cat in the Hat＂ and ＂H
內容簡介：
Marco is in a pickle. His father has instructed him to keep
his eyes peeled for interesting sights on the way to and from
school, but all Marco has seen is a boring old horse and wagon.
Imagine if he had something more to report, say, a zebra pulling
the wagon. Or better yet, the zebra could be pulling a blue and
gold chariot. No, wait! Maybe it should be a reindeer in that
harness. Marco''s story grows ever more elaborate as he reasons that
a reindeer would be happier pulling a sled, then that a really
unusual sight would be an elephant with a ruby-bedecked rajah
enthroned on top. "Say! That makes a story that no one can beat,
When I say that I saw it on Mulberry Street." Time and again, Marco
tops himself until he is positively wound up with excitement and
bursts into his home to tell his dad what he saw on Mulberry
Street.
Pulitzer-prize winning Dr. Seuss needs no introduction. His ode
to the imagination of a child is as fresh and exquisitely
outlandish today as it was when first published in 1937. This is a
classic that will never fade with age. Ages 3 to 8 --Emilie
Coulter --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
關於作者：
Dr. Seuss was born Theodor Geisel in Springfield,
Massachusetts on March 2, 1904. After attending Dartmouth College
and Oxford University, he began a career in advertising. His
advertising cartoons, featuring Quick, Henry, the Flit!, appeared
in several leading American magazines. Dr. Seuss''s first children''s
book, And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street, hit the market
in 1937, and the world of children''s literature was changed
forever! In 1957, Seuss''s The Cat in the Hat became the prototype
for one of Random House''s best- selling series, Beginner Books.
This popular series combined engaging stories with outrageous
illustrations and playful sounds to teach basic reading skills.
Brilliant, playful, and always respectful of children, Dr. Seuss
charmed his way into the consciousness of four generations of
youngsters and parents. In the process, he helped kids learn to
read.
