Circus McGurkus 1, 2, 3!

This Seussian, deluxe cloth book is a bouncy, first counting book for babies and toddlers. Based on Dr. Seuss’s imaginative classic, If I Ran the Circus, these soft, fluffy pages are filled with multi-sensory elements and super Seussian rhyme. From a drum-tummied Snumm complete with rattle to four horn-tooting apes with a squeaker, and more, you and your baby can count on lots of fun!

It s difficult to imagine the children s book landscape without Dr. Seuss, who is, almost half a century after The Cat in the Hat, the best-recognized children s book writer in the country. But until Dr. Seuss -- a.k.a. Theodor Seuss Geisel -- reinvented the genre with his colorful and exuberant Sneetches, Grinches, Zaxes, and Zooks, children s books were often little more than literal-minded lessons and cautionary tales intended to transform young readers into productive citizens.
