Description: Welcome to Once Upon a Bookshelf - A bookstore for people who love books. My wife and I have been selling books on-line for almost 20 years. Know that your purchase goes directly to supporting our livelihood, and our ability to continue making special collections of books available to those who do not have access to a local bookstore. Years ago we set out to hand-select “A Complete Dr. Seuss Set”. We researched and studied and learned it was almost impossible to call any collection of Dr. Seuss books “complete”. His publishing had been so prolific through decades of writing, and even posthumously over the years there has been continued publications of new titles. Additionally, there are many books written by Dr. Seuss and illustrated by others, such as the many books by “Theo. LeSieg" (Theo[dore] Geisel (Dr. Seuss’ real name) spelled backwards). There are titles “based upon” or “inspired by” and posthumously many special editions, collection, board books, baby books, picture dictionaries, coloring books, and many, many, others. This set is what I believe includes every one of the accepted standard "cannon" of his published works, except for titles which are out-of-print. I don't know every-thing about every-title ever-published under the Dr. Seuss name, but if you are wondering about something which you think is missing, or wondering about a particular title, just get in touch. I'm happy to share with you what I know. AND: An adorable TREASURE BOX of assorted Dr. Seuss school supply trinkets to round out the collection and add some whimsy and fun. Includes a Cat-in-the-Hat pen, notepads, erasers, colorful pens, pencils, bookmarks, key chains, stickers, and even a miniature Dr. Seuss book! Great For Dr. Seuss Party Supplies!! As for the books: These are all beautiful matching hardcover editions. There are no board books, or baby books. I have organized the titles into four basic categories. Those being: The “Classics” which are the large 8X11 best-known stories. These are the more elaborately illustrated titles, the “bedtime stories” which are generally intended for adults to read aloud to children. Then there are the Beginner Books which are titles written for children to learn to read on their own (such as "Hop on Pop”, “Green Eggs and Ham”, “One Fish, Two Fish”) Those are 9X7, sized such that the child can hold the books in their hands. The Bright and Early Series includes titles written by Dr. Seuss but illustrated by others. Many of these are generally, but not always, lesser known titles (such as “Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You?”, “In A People House”, “A Great Day for Up!), and these are also sized 9X7. Lastly there are a few of the more grown up titles (such as “Oh, The Places You’ll Go” and “You’re Only Old Once”) plus posthumous publications, and other assorted collections. I have also included "Who Was Dr. Seuss?" - a graphic biography of the author and even "What Was I Scared Of?" a glow-in-dark story.
