A very special, spooky story from Dr. Seuss - with glow-in-the-dark ink!
As always Dr. Seuss is an absolute joy to read aloud and What Was I Scared of? is no exception.
A night time encounter with some rather scary pants (with nobody inside them!) takes us running through the wood in an effort to escape them. As this is Dr. Seuss though it all comes to a happy ending with a lesson learnt that the things we are scared of are more often then not rather less scary than we thought. This specil edition also has a rather wonderful glow in the dark finale that will have your little ones rushing to turn out the lights. ~ Shelley Fallows - You can also find Shelley here.

About Dr. Seuss
“I look at the world through the wrong end of a telescope.”
"A person's a person, no matter how small," Theodor Geisel, a.k.a. Dr. Seuss, would say. "Children want the same things we want. To laugh, to be challenged, to be entertained and delighted."
Brilliant, playful, and always respectful of children, Dr. Seuss charmed his way into the consciousness of four generations of youngsters and parents. In the process, he helped millions of children learn to read.
Theodor Seuss Geisel – better known to millions of his fans as Dr. Seuss – was born the son of a brewer and park superintendent in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904. After studying at Dartmouth College, in New Hampshire, and later at Oxford University in England (where he met his first wife Helen Palmer), 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 hugely successful range of early learning books collectively known as Beginner Books. In all Dr. Seuss wrote more than 40 children’s books during a career that spanned over 50 years, picking up numerous awards, including two Emmy awards for television and a Pulitzer Prize Special Citation along the way.
