  • The older I get the more I understand why the Grinch likes to stay up in his cave with his dog.

    I loved Dr. Seuss books but honestly Dick and Jane books are like gold to me. My home was full of abuse and chaos and I lived every moment in fear. As a child of the 60s, Dick and Jane books like Mr. Roger's Neighborhood were so grounding because there was kindness, acceptance, and order. The order to me was like gold. I would cry when Mr. Roger's Neighborhood show ended at 5:30. I was in 5 th grade and all I knew was abuse. I didn't want his show to end. I had to live another 23 1/2 hours before I could see him again. Dick and Jane books were so calming and predictable. They were safe. I was not safe. Dr. Seuss was fun and inspired me as a children's author (I am published) so I rhymed my books like Dr. Seuss did but I brought order to the chaos and love to the story. I wish I had a parent like Fred Roger's and I wish I had the life Dick and Jane did.

    I actually got emotional when Mr. Geisel passed. I heard Bruce Williams announce it on his radio show. Then Bruce, from cold memory, recited the entire 'Mulberry Street' book. He'd read it to his kids/grandkids so many times. Man, to be 7 again, and have everyone back. The Cat In The Hat... Green Eggs and Ham... One Fish Two Fish...
  • I am so greatly appreciative of this video of this facinating and creative genius Theodore Geisel. His books are so humourous it makes reading them fun. I thoroughly enjoyed this woonderful, informative video. Thank you!
  • I love the Sneeches on the Beaches. A really good story with a deep meaning.

    My grandparents bought most all his books. All us kids wore them out Thanks Ted!!!
  • When my Daughter was little, she was taken shopping with my parents. She spied loafs of "green" colored bread! She asked for a bag of green bread for a treat, Grammy questioned if it was wise but Grampy quickly agreed! He couldn't wait to get back to me and watch my reaction. He was very surprised when my Daughter asked me for green eggs and ham with her bread; for supper!!!

    Can you imagine, some of the world's greatest children's books were created as a result of several vodkas and lots of cigarettes!😂
  • I am nearly 60 years old and still sing along when the Grinch Stole Christmas!😉
  • When my son was 3 years old, his favorite books were Go Dog Go and One Fish Two Fish. It was this second book that setup an hilarious situation in our home. Our son had 2 gold fish. One had a couple of red marks on it. Since he liked it the best, he called it One Fish. The other was of course Two Fish. One day the fish bowl had a slowly leaking crack. We put the fish into another bowl while we went to the store to find a new fish bowl. Upon arriving home a fish was found dead in the sink. It set us up for a ending with chuckles of the pets death of a young child. It went like this: Kevin had two fish. He called them One Fish and Two Fish after Dr. Seuss' book. One Fish died, but we still had Two Fish.
  • It was a hard winter for him??? He had broken his wife's heart, but it was hard for him??? No number of children's stories will ever make him an honorable person.
  • One of my favorite childhood memories is being read Green Eggs n Ham in Kindergarten and the teacher making green scrambled eggs in the classroom for us to eat. When my son was little, in pre-school, I read Green Eggs n Ham to him and we made green scrambled eggs. I hope that is a memory he will cherish. Dr. Seuss was a genius.
  • This started my morning off and if we could all be just like a child again!! I’m 60 years young and love to read! My eldest son first book to read was “Are you my Mother?” He’s an avid reader to this day! Thank you so much for this documentary ❤
  • At 56 I still have "The 'B' Book" memorized. Can't get it out of my head; not even after brain injury.
  • @CarolHeney
    This man, literally taught me how to read, along with Dick, Jane and Sally!! I owe a great deal to him, and I passed it all down to my children!

    What a way to treat a woman who devoted her entire adult life to you and your dreams.
  • The suicide note that was left by his wife really changes my perspective of him. My heart breaks for her
  • Christmas 1964 i received "Cat in the Hat" from my grandmother. Dr Seuss has been my favorite author ever since! I'm now a K-8 reading teacher.
  • Thank you for sharing your fabulous imagination. My favorite was “Are you my mother?”
  • Theodore was head and shoulders above the rest of the writers. Real talent...
