Interesting typed letter signed by Dr. Seuss dated ''July No. 2.'' Seuss writes to his former editor with lengthy comments about two children's books: ''...Re HAND BOOK, Al's new version is very encouraging. Much simpler and more illustratable [sic] than before. I am now analyzing it from the point of view of action and forward motion. Also, to see if we can get more of a 'story feeling' into it. Also to see if it can be made more exciting, step by step. (From page 22 on, it goes forard [sic] and backwards simultaneously.) They're pulling a goat toward a boat, as if this action had some meaning. Then in the next picture, goat is dropped and boy is helping mother put on coat which will be a very dull picture, Then we have active scene of music making, and dull scene of walking hand in hand. Then we go to three very dull concepts...drawing writing and praying. (If drawing and writing are used, it should happen way back in book. Praying, in my opinion, should be not used at all.) The final scene of hand stands is also very static. Maybe...after we have the boy and the monk standing on their hands, they should start walking on their hands. This might enable us to start some forward motion into new scenery. The above is just rumination that I haven't thought through yet...IF you want more criticism from me before Al tries to speed the book up, please say so, and I'll give it to you inch by inch...'' Seuss then continues to critique a second book and signs off with, ''I must go swimming. My bones still are bruised from the Rodeo last Sunday. Love... Ted''. Single page letter in very good condition measures 8.25'' x 12.75''. An exceptional letter on telling stories from the master of story telling.
