Random House announced in a press release that the unfinished manuscript was found at Seuss's home in La Jolla, California. La Jolla is a neighbourhood fairly close to San Diego. The text was found along with the manuscript for "What Pet Should I Get?" which was published back in 2015. 

The story will follow a horse as he "takes a group of students on a guided tour of an art museum." They also report that other famous characters from the Seuss books will be present in the new story. This includes the Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, the Grinch and possibly others.

The children's book is officially set to release on September 3, 2019, and is set to release 250,000 copies.
