Started by Seuss, finished by Prelutsky, and splendiferously illustrated by
Lane Smith, this is the children''s book publishing event of the year! Big--56
pages--and bursting with energy, here is a joyous ode to individuality,
starring an unsinkable teacher named Miss Bonkers and quirky little
Diffendoofer School, which must prove it has taught its students how to
think--or have them sent to dreary Flobbertown. Included is an introduction by
Dr. Seuss''s longtime editor explaining how the book came to be and reproducing
Dr. Seuss''s 1989 original pencil sketches and hand-printed notes for the
book--a true find for all Seuss collectors. In Hooray for Diffendoofer Day!
Jack Prelutsky and Lane Smith pay homage to Dr. Seuss in their own distinctive
ways. The result is the union of three one-of-a-kind voices in a brand-new,
completely original book that is greater than the sum of its parts. For all of
us who will never forget our school days and that special teacher, here is a
book to give and to get.

Dr. Seuss was born Theodore 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. Seusss first children''s book, And To Think 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.
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1984 and two Academy Awards, Seuss was the
author and illustrator of 44 childrens books, some of which have been made into
audiocassettes, animated television specials, and videos for children of all
ages. Even after his death in 1991, Dr. Seuss continues to be the best-selling
