Why I love Dr. Seuss

I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It’s a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life’s realities.
  – Dr. Seuss

    Dr. Seuss rocks. I’ve been able to reread a lot of them with my daughters and they’re just a blast, just really, really good fun. The rhythm of the words when read aloud is fantastic.

    Interestingly enough Dr. Seuss also wrote books for adults that used the same style of verse and pictures as his children’s books. “The Seven Lady Godivas”, “Oh, The Places You’ll Go”, and “You;re Only Old Once” were his adult books. Chris, he also was in the Army and wrote a film which was called Our Job in Japan. That became the basis for the commercially released film, Design for Death,which was a study of Japanese culture in 1947. That film won the Academy Award for Documentary Features. But Dr. Seuss never won the Caldecott nor the Newberry awards.

    Seuss kicks ass.

    Who else uses less than 30 words any 1st grader can understand to form wholly fleshed out characters and stories? He is transcendent, a true and rare genius.

    There is nothing more challenging and fun than reading Seuss aloud to kids.
