Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A young boy weighs the pros and cons of possessing various animal appendages — such as a duck's feet, a deer's antlers, a whale's spout, an elephant's trunk, and a long, long tail — only to decide that he's better off just being himself. A zany, insightful story that beginning readers will wish to hear again and again — with a new "Dr. Seuss" author credit!

Synopsis:

"This zany story of a boy's wishes for duck feet, a whale spout, deer horns, a long tail, elephant's trunk, etc. will be a favorite with young readers." School Library Journal

About the Author

Dr. Seuss is quite simply the most beloved children's book author of all time. His real name was Theodore Geisel. On books he wrote to be illustrated by others, he used the name Theo. LeSieg, which is Geisel spelled backwards.

B. Tobey was a longtime illustrator-cartoonist for The New Yorker. He died in 1989.

This was one of my favorite books as a kid. It was easy to read on my own, plus it was fun! I still have my 35+ year old copy!
