The Bippolo Seed and Other Lost Stories

HarperCollins are thrilled to announce the publication of The Bippolo Seed and Other Lost Stories by Dr. Seuss. The first new Seuss stories to emerge since 1990, The Bippolo Seed and Other Lost Stories includes seven delightful stories by the iconic author and illustrator that have never before appeared in book form.

HarperCollins are delighted to be partnering with The Children's Hospital at Westmead on The Bippolo Seed throughout the month of October. HarperCollins will donate $2 from every copy of The Bippolo Seed sold in October to the Hospital. Donations go to areas of the Hospital most in need, including research into childhood illness and purchase of equipment, ensuring that every child admitted to The Children's Hospital at Westmead will continue to receive world-class care and support.

'For decades Dr Seuss' books have been a much loved part of bedtime for millions of families around the world. It's extremely fitting that we support The Children's Hospital at Westmead with the proceeds of this book,' says Michael Moynahan, HarperCollins Australia CEO. 'The Hospital is renowned for looking after the children and young families of NSW and beyond, and we are very excited to help be part of that,' Moynahan says.

The enchanting stories include The Bippolo Seed, in which a scheming cat leads an innocent duck to make a bad decision, The Rabbit, the Bear, and the Zinniga-Zanniga, about a rabbit who is saved from a bear via a single eyelash and The Great Henry McBride, about a boy whose far-flung career fantasies were bested only by those of Dr. Seuss himself.

Full of typical Seuss humour, rhyme and rhythm and complete with beautiful illustrations, The Bippolo Seed and Other Lost Stories is the perfect book for Seuss fans young or old.

Theodor Seuss Geisel- better known to millions of his fans as Dr. Seuss - was born the son of a park superintendent in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904. After studying at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, and later at Oxford University in England, he became a magazine humorist and cartoonist, and an advertising man. He soon turned his many talents to writing children's books and his first book - And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street, was published in 1937. His greatest claim to fame was the one and only The Cat in the Hat, published in 1957, the first of a successful range of early learning books known as Beginner Books.
