<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Comic pictures show how the fish rapidly outgrows its bowl, a vase, a cook pot, a bathtub".--The New York Times. Full color.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A classic, comic easy reader about getting a pet! <p/></b>In this beloved Beginner Book written by <i>Mrs</i>. Dr. Seuss (aka Helen Palmer), a young boy hilariously learns the consequences of not following instructions when he feeds too much to his goldfish--causing it to grow as big as a whale! With delightfully retro illustrations by P.D. Eastman (<i>Go, Dog. Go!</i>), <br>the message of the book--that getting a pet is a big responsibility--is as true today as it was when the book was published in 1961. Perfect for beginning readers and read-alouds--and anyone getting a pet, especially a fish--it's ideal for birthdays, holidays, and happy occasions of all kinds! <p/>Launched in 1957 with <i>The Cat in the Hat</i> and written specifically for emergent readers, Beginner Books combine an exacting blend of simple words and fun pictures that encourage children to read--all by themselves.<b><br></b><br>Comic pictures show how the fish rapidly outgrows its bowl, a vase, a cook pot, a bathtub.--<i>The New York Times. </i><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>HELEN PALMER was a children's book author and editor who--along with her husband, Theordor Seuss Geisel (aka Dr. Seuss)--founded Beginner Books, a division of Random House that specialized in books aimed at Beginning Readers, like <i>The Cat in the Hat. <p/></i>P.
