Learning to count has never been more fun than in this crazy tale of a dog, a lion and a tiger all showing off how many apples they can balance on their heads as they skip, walk the tightrope and roller skate their way through the book.

This title belongs to the highly acclaimed Beginner Book series developed by Dr. Seuss, in which the essential ingredients of rhyme, rhythm and repetition are combined with zany artwork and off-the-wall humour to create a range of books that will encourage even the most reluctant child to learn to read.

Originally published under the pseudonym of Theo. LeSieg, Ten Apples Up On Top is being relaunched with a stylish new cover design which reveals, for the first time, the true identity of the author – Dr. Seuss himself!
