About this item
A charming Beginner Book about a lovable--but sometimes hard to see--lizard by award-winning illustrator Bob Staake!This bright, cheerful early reader about a giant lizard hiding in unlikely--and un-lizard-like--places combines Staake's trademark high-energy graphic style with the classic appeal of Dr. Seuss, P. D. Eastman, and Robert Lopshire! With simple rhymed text and illustrations that provide visual clues to the meaning of the words on each page, it's exactly what Dr. Seuss had in mind when he launched the Beginner Books series in 1957 with The Cat in the Hat!
