Ce jour-là, j'étais assis avec Sally, on regardait tomber la pluie. On ne savait pas quoi faire. Soudain, il y eut un grand BOUM ! Et nous l'avons vu : le Chat Chapeauté dans notre maison ! Il nous a dit : "C'est vrai, le soleil est caché, mais la journée n'est pas gâchée ! Laissez-moi vous dire que nous allons bien rire !"

Avez-vous déjà entendu parler un grain de poussière ? Horton, oui.

Sur cette poussière, l’éléphant de la jungle découvre de minuscules créatures, les Chous, et devient leur protecteur contre les mauvais coups. Mais les autres animaux le prennent pour un fou.

Qui aura le dernier mot ?

Celebrate the 75th birthday of this classic treatise on bullying by Dr. Seuss with our new foil-covered, color-enhanced Anniversary Edition! As topical today as when it was first published in 1938, The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins is the story of a young peasant (the same as in Bartholomew and the Oobleck—a Caldecott Honor Award-winner), and his unjust treatment at the hands of King Derwin. While The 500 Hats is one of Dr. Seuss's earliest and lesser known works, it is nevertheless totally Seussian and addresses subjects that we know the good doctor was passionate about throughout his life: the abuse of power (as in Yertle the Turtle and Horton Hears a Who); rivalry (as in The Sneetches); and of course, zany good humor (as in The Cat in the Hat and the 43 other books he wrote and illustrated)! Available for a limited time only, this is a perfect way to introduce new readers to an old classic, or to reward existing fans.

Le Grinch n'aimait pas Noël ! Et pourquoi ? Personne ne le savait.

Mais une chose était sûre : le Grinch devait vite trouver une idée pour empêcher Noël d'arriver. Alors, voici ce qu'il fit : il se déguisa en Père Noël, s'installa sur un vieux traîneau, et il vola tous les cadeaux !

Publiée en anglais sous le titre original One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish, cette nouvelle traduction française reste fidèle à ce qui fait le succès des livres du Dr. Seuss : rimes facétieuses et personnages loufoques comme le Bloss à sept bosses, Willy et son petit lit ou le Gox qui aime la boxe…. ce livre n’est pas seulement un outil parfait pour apprendre à lire le français, c’est aussi un régal de lecture ludique où le rire n’est jamais loin : « Notre vélo est super. Il a trois places. Notre Robert s’assoit derrière. C’est cocasse ! »

Originally published in English as One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish, this new French translation faithfully captures Dr. Seuss' beloved tales, rollicking rhyme and zany characters such as winking Yink, seven-humped Wump and Ned with his little bed. This book is not only a perfect tool for learning to read French, it also entertains and amuses with playful passages such as “Did you ever fly a kite in bed? Did you ever walk with ten cats on your head?”

English:

Long before “going green” was mainstream, Dr. Seuss’s Lorax spoke for the trees and warned of the dangers of disrespecting the environment. In this cautionary rhyming tale (printed on recycled paper) we learn of the Once-ler, who came across a valley of Truffula Trees and Brown Bar-ba-loots, and how his harvesting of the tufted trees changed the landscape forever.

Français:

Il y a longtemps "passant au vert" était courant, docteur Seuss Lorax a parlé pour les arbres et a averti des dangers de manque de respect envers l'environnement. Dans ce conte rimant d'avertissement (imprimé sur le papier recyclé) nous apprenons de Once-ler, qu'il a traversé une vallée d'Arbres Truffula et Brown Bar-ba-loots et comment sa récolte des arbres touffetés a changé le paysage pour toujours.

The Butter Battle Book, Dr. Seuss's classic cautionary tale, introduces readers to the important lesson of respecting differences. The Yooks and Zooks share a love of buttered bread, but animosity brews between the two groups because they prefer to enjoy the tasty treat differently. The timeless and topical rhyming text is an ideal way to teach young children about the issues of tolerance and respect. Whether in the home or in the classroom, The Butter Battle Book is a must-have for readers of all ages.

Celebrate sleep with Dr. Seuss’s classic rhyming good-night picture book.

Dr. Seuss and the Cat show that reading is fun—even when you don’t look at the words!—in this classic Beginner Book. “The more that you read, the more things you will know.

And whether reading about hoses or roses or owls on noses, I Can Read with My Eyes Shut is a hysterical way to discover the joy of books.

Though Dr. Seuss is known for his peerless work in books for children, this comical look at what it's like to get older is ideal for Seuss fans of advanced years. In his own words, this is "a book for obsolete children." A perfect gift for retirement, birthdays, and holidays!

Animals abound in Dr. Seuss’s Caldecott Honor–winning picture book If I Ran the Zoo. Gerald McGrew imagines the myriad of animals he’d have in his very own zoo, and the adventures he’ll have to go on in order to gather them all. Featuring everything from a lion with ten feet to a Fizza-ma-Wizza-ma-Dill, this is a classic Seussian crowd-pleaser. In fact, one of Gerald’s creatures has even become a part of the language: the Nerd!

This classic hardcover activity book written by Dr. Seuss and illustrated by Roy McKie encourages children to write and draw their own biographies. With a mix of serious (and seriously silly!)

As the story opens, the protagonist lives a happy and carefree life before tripping over a rock one day and being bitten and stung by various creatures. A passing traveler says that he is bound for the trouble-free city of Solla Sollew, so the protagonist joins him. The journey itself is beset by many more troubles, including a draft animal that falls sick, a bus that breaks down, a flood, and a general who conscripts the protagonist into his army. The army retreats during battle, leaving the protagonist alone against a pack of wild Poozers. Escaping into a dark tunnel, the protagonist suffers numerous further mishaps before finally reaching an exit door that opens near Solla Sollew.

The protagonist discovers that Solla Sollew is surrounded by a wall with only one door. The doorman apologizes that he cannot open it, because a Key-Slapping Slippard recently nested in the key hole. Since the city no longer needs a doorman, he has decided to set off for yet another untroubled city that he has heard about. The protagonist declines to go with him and instead returns home, determined to face troubles rather than run away from them
