Seiden worked in the field of advertising in his early career, and could list Phillip Morris and General Motors among his clients. When he began illustrating for children, his first assignment was creating the artwork for Margaret Wise Brown and Jean H. Berg’s Three Mice and A Rat in 1950. Writing and illustrating his own work began in 1953 with the publication of My ABC Book from Wonder Books.
