Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!!!
 

“And this mess is so big
And so deep and so tall,
We cannot pick it up.
There is no way at all!”
― Dr. Seuss, The Cat in the Hat

Awe.....

I so need to pick up his fabric line... :thumbup:
And the Lorax line too !!!

He is my hero. I remember when I read that he passed away - I was walking across my college campus and saw a newspaper box with the news on it. I stood there and cried my eyes out. Miss you so much, Dr. S!!!

"...It is fun to have fun, but you have to know how." - The Cat in the Hat

I got an "A" in a college course because I could explain Environmentalism using his book "The Lorax" "I speak for the trees!"


I used to use the "Sneetches" story when teaching my students about discrimination, "They have stars on thars!" or "Horton Hatches and Egg" on responsibility and keeping your word. "I said what I mean and I mean what I said. An Elephant is faithful 100%"

One of my favorites is a little known story that shows the stupidity of war, "The Butter Battle" "Who's going to drop it? Will you...? Or Will he..?"Be patient," said Grandpa. "We'll see. We will see....

Butter Battle Book was a wonderful book! He was actually an artist as well as an author/illustrator. He did some very interesting pieces of art. I have always wanted to own one, but have never had the money...
