Synopsis "Sam and the Firefly (Beginner Books) "

Sam the Owl and Gus the Firefly literally light up the sky in this classic Beginner Book edited by Dr. Seuss. In Sam and the Firefly, P. D. Eastman (author of Are You My Mother? and Go, Dog. Go!) introduces us to the dynamic duo of Sam and Gus, who soar through the air writing words in the night sky. But when Gus's words end up causing confusion and chaos for the people on the ground, it's up to Sam to help Gus "write" his wrongs. Originally created by Dr. Seuss, Beginner Books encourage children to read all by themselves, with simple words and illustrations that give clues to their meaning. ...provides interest, suspense and word repetition. Illustrations excellent. Recommended.--(starred) School Library Journal.

P. D. Eastman was an author and illustrator who created many children's books, including Are You My Mother? and Go, Dog. Trained at the National Academy of Design, he enlisted in the army in 1943 and was assigned to the Film Unit of the Signal Corps, led by Theodor Geisel, who would eventually be known worldwide as Dr. Seuss. After Geisel approached him to write his new beginner book series at Random House, Eastman published his first book, Sam and the Firefly. Since then, Random House has sold over 30 million books by P. D. Eastman, making him one of the world's most beloved children's book authors.
