RHCB Ups Print Run for New Dr. Seuss Book

Random House Children's Books has announced that it will increase its first printing of Dr. Seuss's recently discovered manuscript, Sing the 50 United States!, from 500,000 to one million copies when the book is released on June 2.

Dr. Seuss's unpublished manuscript for the book, which invites readers to learn and name every state alongside the Cat in the Hat, was originally unearthed in October 2025. 

“With such remarkable enthusiasm from booksellers, educators, and Dr. Seuss fans young and old, we are thrilled to increase the first printing of Sing the 50 United States! to one million copies,” Judith Haut, EVP and deputy publisher of RHCB, said. “A new Dr. Seuss book is a definitive landmark publishing moment, and this joyful celebration of the fifty states feels especially meaningful as we approach America’s 250th birthday.”
