The Cat in the Hat

More about the book

Poor Sally and her brother. It's cold and wet and they're stuck in the house with nothing to do . . . until a giant cat in a hat shows up, transforming the dull day into a madcap adventure and almost wrecking the place in the process! Written by Dr. Seuss in 1957 in response to the concern that "pallid primers [with] abnormally courteous, unnaturally clean boys and girls' were leading to growing illiteracy among children, <i>The Cat in the Hat </i>(the first Random House Beginner Book) changed the way our children learn how to read. <b>Book Details:</b> Format: Hardcover Publication Date: 3/12/1957 Pages: 72 Reading Level: Age 3 and Up
