      About This Book

      A CALDECOTT HONOR BOOK • NATIONAL BESTSELLER

      Join Bartholomew Cubbins in Dr. Seuss's Caldecott Honor–winning picture book about a king's magical mishap! Bored with rain, sunshine, fog, and snow, King Derwin of Didd summons his royal magicians to create something new and exciting to fall from the sky. What he gets is a storm of sticky green goo called Oobleck—which soon wreaks havock all over his kingdom! But with the assistance of the wise page boy Bartholomew, the king (along with young readers) learns that the simplest words can sometimes solve the stickiest problems.
