Cat in the Hat's Great Big Flap Book, The Book

The Cat in the Hat says, "We can have all kinds of fun that is funny!"--and proceeds to prove it in his inimitable style. Inspired by many of the best-loved Dr. Seuss classics, including The Cat in the Hat, One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish, and There's a Wocket in My Pocket!, this giant flap book is guaranteed to flip out even the unflappable. Giggling readers can lift more than 70 flaps to find such distinguished characters as Zeds, Findows, and Lollipop-Licking Lions. Learning to count is a piece of cake when every numbered flap reveals surprises such as nine wet pets or six sick bricks. But wait, there's more! Flip the flaps to discover that the cow says "moo" and the bumblebee says "buzz buzz." Red Rhinoceros starts with the letter r and Camel on the Ceiling starts with c. The opposite of old is new, and the opposite of sad is glad. So go ahead, put this book in your bookcase--unless the banana-munching Nook Gase gets there first. In that case, try the cupboard--drats! The Nupboards beat you to it! Wherever it goes, the Great Big Flap Book is sure to entertain and educate. (Ages 3 to 7) --Emilie Coulter
