New Dr. Seuss Book To Be Released Almost 25 Years Since His Passing

Although he passed away over two decades ago, Dr. Seuss is about to release a new book, called What Pet Should I Get?, on July 28th.

Random House Children's Books says at least two more books, based on materials found in 2013 by his widow Audrey Geisel, will be forthcoming.

From USA Today:

The author, whose real name was Theodor "Ted" Seuss Geisel, died in 1991 at the age of 87.

According to Random House, when Audrey Geisel was remodeling her home after his death, she found a box filled with pages of text and sketches and set it aside with some of her husband's other materials.

It was rediscovered 22 years later, in the fall of 2013, by Audrey Geisel and Claudia Prescott — Ted Geisel's longtime secretary and friend — when they were cleaning out his office space.
