Featured Books
For our first Children's Featured Books, we are
offering 2
titles
by Dr. Seuss and one vintage
Juvenile Fiction
title. Both of the
Dr. Seuss books
are somewhat
unusual - one is a compilation of 5
of
the classic
stories, and the other is a story
about
children's
various moods which Dr. Seuss
wanted
someone else to
illustrate in a different style
than
his. The
vintage Juvenile Fiction is a
delightful
story
published in 1909, one of a series of five
about
a
girl named Maida.
