You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Beginner Books''' is the [[Random House]] imprint for young children ages 3–9, co-founded by [[Phyllis Fraser|Phyllis Cerf]] with Ted Geisel, more often known as [[Dr. Seuss]], and his wife [[Helen Palmer Geisel]]. Their first book was Dr. Seuss's ''[[The Cat in the Hat]]'' (1957), whose title character appears in the brand's logo. Cerf compiled a list of 379 words as the basic vocabulary for young readers, along with another 20 slightly harder "emergency" words.<ref>Judith Morgan and Neil Morgan, ''Dr. Seuss & Mr. Geisel: A Biography'' (Da Capo Press, 1996), ((ISBN|978-0-306-80736-7)).</ref> No more than 200 words were taken from that list to write ''The Cat in the Hat''.  Subsequent books in the series were modeled on the same requirement.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=6rnHjVaTKMMC&pg=PA158 Excerpt available] at [[Google Books]].</ref>

Beginner Books had only four titles in their catalog in 1958. Two years later, they were earning 1 million dollars a year. Random House acquired Beginner Books in 1960<ref>((Cite news| issn = 0362-4331| title = RANDOM HOUSE EXPANDS; Acquiring Stock of Beginner Books, Pending Approval| work = The New York Times| accessdate = March 6, 2021| date = July 29, 1960| url = https://www.nytimes.com/1960/07/29/archives/random-house-expands-acquiring-stock-of-beginner-books-pending.html))</ref> and was the largest publisher of children's books in the [[United States]].

== Early contributors ==

===Authors===
When Theodor Seuss Geisel illustrated his own stories, he wrote as [[Dr. Seuss]]. When others created the illustrations, he used either the pseudonym '''Theo LeSieg''' or '''Rosetta Stone'''. Other authors of early Beginner Books were [[Robert Lopshire|Robert M. Lopshire]], [[Bennett Cerf]], [[Al Perkins (children's author)|Al Perkins]], [[Helen Palmer (author)|Helen Palmer Geisel]] who wrote as [[Helen Palmer (author)|Helen Palmer]], [[P. D. Eastman|Philip Dey Eastman]], [[Stan and Jan Berenstain]], Benjamin Elkin and [[Marion Holland]].

===Illustrators===
Early Beginner Books employed many famous illustrators, including the aforementioned [[Dr. Seuss|Theodor Seuss Geisel]], [[P. D. Eastman]], [[Stan and Jan Berenstain]], and [[Robert Lopshire]]. [[Roy McKie]] was also an illustrator.
