This is the most interesting biography that I have ever read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
The book Dr. Suess & Mr. Geisel written by Judith and Neil Morgan is the best biography that I have ever read. Suess' life is one that is very intriguing. Part of the reason is because of Suess' humor! It seems like nothing could keep him down for long and when it did, he would just laugh about it and get back on his feet again. This book could be called a page-turner. There is always a interesting fact on the next page. In this book Dr. Suess can really be seen as another regular class clown in normal class. I would recommend this biography as the best biography that I have ever read in my whole life.
An Excellent Introduction to the Seuss World
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
I have read almost all of the books written by Dr. Seuss, but knew little about the wonderful man. This book is full of humour and delightful insights into the workings of children's books (non-existent before Dr. Seuss) and the many other projects under his guise. Recommended reading for everyone over 20-- to recapture the magic behind the Cat, Horton and the Grinch!
Career Education for Boomers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
Dr. Seuss, inspired by goose juice, held true to his thoughts in both words, pictures, and moose pouse . What we now take for granted as children's literature was unheard of before Ted Geisel met an old Dartmouth buddy on the streets of New York, depresssed at receiving over 20 rejections for his first children's book. To Think That I Saw it on Mulberry Street made it into our school and town libraries because Ted's friend was willing to read his story, and had a brand new job in the juvenile division in a publishing house that considered offbeat works. School to Work and School to Career collections need this book to support teachers, employers, and parents in making the connection between cerativity, social norms, and economic drivers of educational trends. From Seuss's defense of his principles in publising partnerships to his thoughtful struggle with cancer, this book changed the way I teach at the College For Lifeling Learning. I'd read this book aloud to you if I could fit inside that little slot in the tape player.
