I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today! and Other Stories - (Classic Seuss) by Dr Seuss (Hardcover)

About the Book

Originally published in 1969; copyright renewed 1997.

Book Synopsis

A lesser-known collection of classic Dr. Seuss stories about humility, equality, and the power of imagination!

This collection of three rhyming stories by Dr. Seuss features a whole litter of Cat in the Hat-like cats! In "I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today!" a boastful cat bites off more than he can chew in the shape of 30 tigers; in "King Louie Katz"--a tale about tails--a single cat challenges authority and creates a more "demo-catic" society; and in "The Glunk That Got Thunk," a cat thinks up something so wild, she needs to un-thunk it! Beautifully illustrated in ink and watercolor, this quirky collection of Seussian silliness will be a welcome gift to Dr. Seuss fans of all ages.
