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.
