Description

Dr. Seuss has all the time been welcome in every reader’s home, but in this Bright and Early Book classic, Marvin K. Mooney’s welcome has been worn out! In merry verse and illustrations, Marvin is asked to leave by every imaginable means of transportation. He can leave by lion’s tail or stamp himself and go by mail. By stilts or Crunk-Car or Zumble-Zay, it’s time that Marvin used to be on his way. Will Marvin ever get the hint?

Combining brief and funny stories, easy words, catchy rhythm, and lively illustrations, Bright and Early Books are a great way to introduce the joys of reading to children.
Oh, why may not Marvin K. Mooney just please go now? In this 1972 classic for “beginning beginners,” Dr. Seuss devotes his rhymes to budging the reluctant young Marvin K.: “The time has come. The time is now. Just go. Go. GO! I don’t care how.” But despite his impatience, our narrator certainly isn’t short of ideas on how Marvin could make an exit. “You’ll be able to go on stilts. You’ll be able to go by fish. You’ll be able to go in a Crunk-Car if you would like.” Seuss’s ever wacky illustrations accompany each new mode of transport, from balloon to broomstick to Bumble-Boat. And if people who find themselves just learning find a word they do not know, likelihood is that Seuss has simply made it up to fill out this ear-pleasing, easy-to-read text. This book is yet another fun and euphonious entry from the good doctor, a silly primer for budding rhymers and readers. (Ages 4 to 8) –Paul Hughes
