Theodor Seuss Geisel (March 2, 1904-Sept. 24, 1991) was an American writer, poet and cartoonist widely known for his 46 children's books written and illustrated as Dr. Seuss. His birthday, March 2, has been adopted as the annual date for National Read Across America Day, an initiative on reading created by the National Education Association.
Children love Dr. Seuss books for their imaginative characters, rhyme and made up words. Adults find inspiration in many of his quotes.
Do you have a favorite Dr. Seuss story? Mine is probably a toss up between The Cat in the Hat and Horton Hears a Who.
Help celebrate Read Across America day and honor a remarkable author whose work will continue to be appreciated for decades to come!
