I’m the Cat in the Hat
I love pets as you see.
You can meet lots of pets
if you travel with me.

In this charming book, Dr. Seuss’ famous Cat in the Hat introduces young readers to all kinds of pets and how to look after them.

Oh, the Pets You Can Get! is part of a series of books that takes an off-beat look at nature and natural sciences through a fun combination of Seussian rhymes and zany illustrations.

Aimed at early readers – from four to seven-year-olds – the books are designed to bridge the gap between concept books written for preschoolers and more formal non-fiction titles that require fluent reading skills. By presenting the facts in a lively and rhythmic manner, they provide the critical foundation upon which complex facts and ideas can eventually be built.

About the Author

Theodor Seuss Geisel -- better known to millions of his fans as Dr. Seuss -- was born the son of a park superintendent in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904. After studying at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, and later at Oxford University in England, he became a magazine humorist and cartoonist, and an advertising man. He soon turned his many talents to writing children's books, and his first book -- And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street -- was published in 1937. His greatest claim to fame was the one and only The Cat in the Hat, published in 1957, the first of a hugely successful range of early learning books known as Beginner Books.
