<p><strong><strong>A funny Beginner Book about the difficulties of being a big brother--perfect for kids who love bugs and space!</strong></strong><br /><br />In this charming, rhymed easy-reader, energetic Little Cricket longs to go someplace where he can play and make noise without waking up his new baby sibling. But when Cricket finds a ticket that (literally!) takes him <em>out of this world,</em> he discovers that the best place to have fun is at home with his family--including Baby Cricket! Ideal for reading alone or reading out loud, <em>A Ticket for Cricket</em> is the perfect choice for beginning readers, big brothers or sisters, bug-lovers, budding astronomers, or kids who are all of the above!<br /><br />Originally created by Dr. Seuss himself, Beginner Books are fun, funny, and easy to read. These unjacketed hardcover early readers encourage children to read all on their own, using simple words and illustrations. Smaller than the classic large format Seuss picture books like <em>The Lorax</em> and <em>Oh, The Places You'll Go!,</em> these portable packages are perfect for practicing readers ages 3-7, and lucky parents too!</p>
