Touted as Dr. Seuss's first book for adults, The Seven Lady Godivas tells the story of not one, but seven 11th Century Lady Godivas. They are sisters sworn not to marry the seven Peeping brothers until each of them discovers a scientific truth about horses. They were driven to this oath by the death of their father during an experiment using a horse as a means of transportation.

"Re-issued by multitudinous demand", this is a Commemorative Edition of The Seven Lady Godivas originally released in 1939. Hardcover with dust jacket, First Printing of Reissued Edition, September 1987. Number line 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0. Random House Publishing Group, New York.

Both the book and dust jacket are in excellent condition. The bright orange dust jacket is not price-clipped or torn and shows minimal surface wear. The book itself appears almost as new, with a tight spine and crisp edges. Marbleized boards with illustration and brown binding are accented with gold script. Pages are crisp and clean with no inscription or writing on the pages - just a couple of fingerprint smudges shown in photo #6. The drawings are colorful and clearly show Dr. Seuss's distinctive style.

A fine addition to a modern library, this unique book by Theodor Seuss Geisel is an entertaining adult fairy tale from the master of children's literature.
