Theodor Seuss Geisel – better known to millions of his fans as Dr. Seuss – was born the son of a park superintendent in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904. After studying at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, and later at Oxford University in England, he became a magazine humorist and cartoonist, and an advertising man. He soon turned his many talents to writing children’s books, and his first book – And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street – was published in 1937. His greatest claim to fame was the one and only The Cat in the Hat, published in 1957, the first of a hugely successful range of early learning books known as Beginner Books.
In his highly acclaimed Beginner Book series Dr. Seuss combines the essential ingredients of rhyme, rhythm, and repetition with zany artwork and off-the wall humour to create a hilarious range of books that will encourage even the most reluctant child to read.
If you want a green kangaroo, a skateboard TV, or a Jeep-a-Fly kite – just wait till the first of Octember. This delightful exercise in wish-fulfilment introduces children to the months of the year and the idea that they may not always get what they want!
