Thidwick The Big-Hearted Moose by Dr. Seuss

This item is a hardcover children's book titled "Thidwick The Big-Hearted Moose" by Dr. Seuss. The book features a vibrant teal-colored cover that is characteristic of many Dr. Seuss publications. The central illustration on the cover depicts the titular character, Thidwick, a white moose with large, expressive eyes and distinctive antlers, set against a background of foliage. The title "THIDWICK" is prominently displayed in orange lettering on a banner-like scroll, with "The Big-Hearted Moose" handwritten in teal script below it. The author's name, "By Dr. Seuss," is printed in orange at the bottom right. The physical characteristics indicate a standard hardcover book size, likely designed for young readers. Observable condition issues include some minor wear on the corners and edges, consistent with a used book. There are some handwritten markings on the top right of the cover, specifically in black ink, which appear to be "G. 1/2" and "m. Uyan", possibly indicating a previous owner's name or library cataloging information. A small, round, blue sticker or label is also present in the top right corner. On the spine section, a partial white label with a black 'U' is visible, further suggesting it might have been part of a library collection. The colors remain largely vibrant, indicating good preservation despite visible handling. The craftsmanship points to a mass-produced children's book, well-bound for durability. It is a classic example of Dr. Seuss's distinctive artistic and literary style, likely published in the mid to late 20th century.
