Oh, the Places You'll Go!

Description: "For out-starting upstarts of all ages, here is a wonderfully wise and blessedly brief graduation speech from the one and only Dr. Seuss. In his inimitable, humorous verse and pictures he addresses the Great Balancing Act (life itself, and the ups and downs it presents) while encouraging us to find the success that lies within us.
And will you succeed?
Yes! You will, indeed!
(98 and ¾ percent guaranteed.)
Parents will find [this] the perfect send-off for children starting out in the maze of life, be they nursery school grads or medical school achievers."

Glazed pictorial boards repeat jacket design. Spine bumped and slightly creased; corners straight. Price-clipped jacket has a minor stain on its edge, but is in otherwise excellent condition. Neatly written gift inscription (dated September 2003) in blue ink. The previous owner's aunt and uncle went to great lengths to personalise the book for their niece: the word 'guy' has been crossed out on one page and replaced with 'gal'. A plaster/band-aid has been stuck to rfep and the word "OUCH" inscribed next to it. Overleaf a smiling sun has been drawn in the same blue ink. Modifications aside, the book is as new: pages are crisp, bright, unmarked and very tightly bound.
