27, 2011. Though they were originally published in magazines in the early 1950s, they had never been published in book form and are quite rare, described by the publisher as "the literary equivalent of buried treasure".<sup id="cite_ref-RH_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-RH-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The stories were discovered by Charles D.

He initially plans to only wish for a week's supply of duck food, but a greedy cat convinces him that they should wish for many more items than they need so that they can sell them and become rich. However, in their excitement, the duo ends up dropping the seed into a body of water by accident and are unable to find it. The story ends by noting that the duo may have been luckier had they not wished for so much.</li> <li>"The Rabbit, the Bear, and the Zinniga-Zanniga": A rabbit about to be eaten by a bear manages to escape by convincing him that he has a rare but serious and potentially lethal disorder, the lack of a single eyelash, which he can only cure by holding a flower from a nearby Zinniga-Zanniga tree to his eye while staying still.</li> <li>"Gustav the Goldfish": A boy overfeeds his pet goldfish Gustav despite having been told by the man who sold Gustav to never do so. This causes Gustav to begin gradually growing, and he moves throughout the house as the boy tries and fails to contain him, until he eventually fills a cellar and must be cured by his original seller. The boy resolves never to overfeed Gustav again after he is returned to his normal size. This story was adapted in 1961 by <a href="/wiki/Helen_Palmer_Geisel" class="mw-redirect" title="Helen Palmer Geisel">Helen Palmer</a> as <i><a href="/wiki/A_Fish_out_of_Water_(book)" class="mw-redirect" title="A Fish out of Water (book)">A Fish out of Water</a></i>.</li> <li>"Tadd and Todd": A boy named Tadd is frustrated because no one can tell him apart from his identical twin brother, Todd, so he tries to distinguish himself by enhancing his appearance with many accessories, but his attempts are foiled by Todd, who still replicates his appearance exactly as he enjoys being "like two peas in a pod". In the end, Todd finally gets Tadd to accept the fact that they will always be the same and Tadd starts to enjoy being an identical twin.</li> <li>"Steak for Supper": A boy on his way home on a Saturday brags to himself about his weekly steak dinner, causing a growing group of strange creatures who hear the statement to follow him home for some steak, each successively inviting another creature, concerning the boy, who increasingly regrets his bragging. When they get home, they discover that the boy's family got stew instead by mistake and all of the creatures leave in disgust, much to the boy's relief, and he resolves to follow his father's advice to "button his lips".</li> <li>"The Strange Shirt Spot": A boy gets dirt on his brand-new white shirt and fears his mother's disapproval. After several attempts to get rid of the dirt, he only manages to pass it between objects throughout the house, eventually returning it to his shirt by accident just before his mother arrives and reprimands him.</li> <li>"The Great Henry McBride": A boy named Henry McBride dreams of what job he may do when he is older. His imagination gets increasingly ambitious as he imagines doing progressively more jobs simultaneously, culminating in him picturing himself as a rabbit farmer, doctor, radio presenter, seal trainer, and cowpuncher all at once. He concludes that the best job for him at the moment is dreaming without having to do work.</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Publication">Publication</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Bippolo_Seed_and_Other_Lost_Stories&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Publication"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The collection was published by Random House on September 27, 2011.<sup id="cite_ref-PW_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-PW-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The stories originally appeared in magazines in 1950 and 1951.<sup id="cite_ref-PW_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-PW-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Dr. Seuss died in 1991, and the stories were later rediscovered by Charles D.
