Remembering Dr. Seuss

Last Tuesday would have been Theodore Seuss Geisel's 106th birthday. Dr. Seuss has always been a favorite for me personally, but also for the children I've cared for. What is it about his books that are so compelling? Maybe it’s the rhyme and the rhythm or the energetic artwork, or maybe the flow of fun that is woven into every story. No matter what the reason they have stood the test of time and continue to delight and fascinate children and adults alike.
Our favorites include:
One Fish, Two Fish – a great first reader book with a wonderful sing-song rhythm
Hop on Pop – another wonderful beginner reader, which is often a favorite of preschoolers
Green Eggs and Ham or The Cat in the Hat – crazy fun, encouraging reading
The Lorax and The Sneetches – for life lessons that still speak to us

There are so many more wonderful titles and great stories. We’d love for you to share something about your favorite Dr. Seuss books! Please comment below. We’re looking forward to hearing from you.
