Cat in the Hat by Dr. SeussWritten in American Sign Language by Cherie WrenBackBackBackBorderAnd then he ran out. And fast as a fox,the Cat in the Hat came back with a box. A big red wood box.41

Cat in the Hat by Dr. SeussWritten in American Sign Language by Cherie WrenBackBackBackBorderIt was shut with a hook. “Now look at this trick,”said the Cat, “Take a look!”42

Cat in the Hat by Dr. SeussWritten in American Sign Language by Cherie WrenBackBackBackBorderThen he got up on top with the tip of his hat.“I call this game “fun in a box,” said the Cat.43

Cat in the Hat by Dr. SeussWritten in American Sign Language by Cherie WrenBackBackBackBorder“In this box are two things I will show to you now.You will like these two44

Cat in the Hat by Dr. SeussWritten in American Sign Language by Cherie WrenBackBackBackBorder“Have no fear, little fish,” said the Cat in the Hat.“These Things are good Things.”53

Cat in the Hat by Dr. SeussWritten in American Sign Language by Cherie WrenBackBackBackBorderAnd he gave them a pat. “They are tame. Oh, so tame!They have come here to play.54
