1. Book readers, rejoice: A new Dr. Seuss is on the loose!

What Pet Should I Get? Read the newly discovered title from Dr. Seuss, which hits shelves Tuesday, for some delightful advice. Random House Children's Books is publishing Dr. Seuss books based on materials found in 2013 by his widow, Audrey Geisel. This title, announced in February, is believed to date to 1958-62.  It features the same brother and sister seen in Dr. Seuss' 1960 classic One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish. The story is simple: A brother and sister go to the pet store with permission from Mom and Dad (who are nowhere in sight) to “pick just one” pet to bring home by noon. But it’s so hard to “Make Up Your Mind,” as a banner proclaims! Brother wants a dog, sister wants a cat … or a rabbit, or a bird, or a fish. And what the heck is that long-nosed thing called a Yent that could live in a tent?

3. Treasure hunters tell tale of finding $1M in Spanish booty 

The Schmidt family has done it again. For the third year in a row the family hasrecovered sunken Spanish treasure while working as subtractors for 1715 Fleet-Queens Jewels LLC, an historic shipwreck salvage operation operated by treasure hunter Brent Brisben and his father, William Brisben. This time they found 51 gold coins, 40 feet of ornate gold chain and a single rare coin called a “Tricentennial Royal” that is dated 1715.

5.Country's youngest murderer expected to be released from prison

Barring any last-minute setbacks, the country's youngest murderer will walk out of prison Tuesday — free for the first time since he was 12 years old. Curtis Fairchild Jones and his sister, Catherine, then 13, admitted to killing their father’s girlfriend in Florida in 1999. The siblings said they were being sexually abused and planned to kill their abuser, their father and their father's girlfriend, who they said was allowing the abuse to continue. They became the youngest children in the country’s history to be charged as adults for first-degree murder. Facing the prospect of life in prison, they pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and were sentenced to 18 years in prison followed by probation for life. Curtis Jones, now 29, is expected to be released Tuesday. His sister is due to be released in August.
