A polygon is a dead parrot. Respiration is composed of two acts, first inspiration and then expectoration. They gave William IV a lovely funeral. It took six men to carry the beer. This priceless collection of ill-digested juvenile learning, first published by Viking in 1931 as Boners (compiled and edited by "Alexander Abingdon"), was an enormous bestseller for over half a century and contains what are among the earliest published drawings by the unmistakable Dr. Seuss. Redesigned and repackaged with a vintage look, Herrings Go About the Sea in Shawls is a must for the legion fans of Dr. Seuss, and the gift of choice on any occasion, for anyone with a sense of humor-earthy, cerebral, subtle, or sublimely silly! |
