Sell Your Dr Seuss McElligot’s Pool 1st Edition

Beloved children’s author Dr. Seuss published over 60 children’s books during the span of nearly six decades. McElligot’s Pool was his seventh children’s book and won a Caldecott Honor. Dr. Seuss illustrated the book with paintings rather than pen and ink like most of his books feature.
