Description/Notes
Illus. in color. 'Combines phonics and word recognition, making sounds and letters recognizable. Highly recommended.'--(starred) School Library Journal. Introducing the very simplest of words, usually of one syllable, Seuss puts them into a nonsensical rhyming format with humorous results. His illustrations of outlandish 'things' entice children into trying to read. One of the many entertaining, controlled vocabulary stories of Dr. Seuss. Also use: One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish (1960); Fox in Socks (1965). This is the most recent of three books about these rollicking woolsters; the others are Sheep on a Jeep and Sheep on a Ship. Comical tongue-twisting wordplay and a rat-a-tat rhythm will have children clamoring to go along on this shipping trop-make that shopping trip-again and again. This is one of the best teaching tools around, despite its popping, bopping text and appearance of playfulness.
