  • Fun Facts About Dr. Seuss • Dr Seuss’S Real Name Was Theodor Seuss Geisel but His Friends and Family Called Him ‘Ted’
    Fun Facts about Dr. Seuss • Dr Seuss’s real name was Theodor Seuss Geisel but his friends and family called him ‘Ted’. • Theodor Seuss Geisel was born on 2 March 1904 in Springfield, Massachusetts. • Ted worked as a cartoonist and then in advertising in the 1930s and 1940s but started contributing weekly political cartoons to a magazine called PM as the war approached. • The first book that was both written and illustrated by Theodor Seuss Geisel was And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street. The book was rejected 27 times before being published in 1937. • The Cat in the Hat was written as a result of a 1954 report published in Life magazine about illiteracy among school children. A text-book editor at a publishing company was concerned about the report and commissioned Ted to write a book which would appeal to children learning to read, using only 250 words given to him by the editor. • Ted was fascinated by research into how babies develop in the womb and whether they can hear and respond to the voices of their parents. He was delighted to find that The Cat in the Hat had been chosen by researchers to be read by parents to their babies while the babies were still in utero . • Writing as Dr Seuss, Theodor Seuss Geisel wrote and illustrated 44 children's books. and These books have been translated into more than 15 languages and have sold over 200 million copies around the world.

    Grappling with Seuss by Rev. Michelle Collins, delivered March 2, 2014 (Dr. Seuss’s 110th birthday) When How the Grinch Stole Christmas was published, it only had two colors, red and green. Art director Cathy Goldsmith was assigned the job of creating a four-color version of illustrations from the book for a puzzle. This project ended up having an unexpected twist in it. When she first sent Geisel her sketch, he called her right back with a problem. “You know what’s wrong? You need some color in the snow.” “What do you mean? Snow is white!” “No,” he says. “Look here, it’s too white. You need a little color so it doesn’t blind you.” He grabbed his color chart and gave her a number for pale mint green for her snow. Green snow! What was he thinking?!? But she went with it, and put green snow into the puzzle picture. And the crazy thing is, it worked. The other colors in the picture dominated and the pale green snow was a soft snow-white.1 Only Dr. Seuss could make green snow that works as snow! Today our celebration of Dr. Seuss in our service is in honor of today’s being his 110th birthday. Theodor Geisel went by the pen name Dr. Seuss for most of his children’s books, and occasionally Theo LeSieg for books that he wrote but others illustrated. He wrote 46 books as Dr. Seuss over the course of his life. Now while we love to “claim” people as UU’s, Dr.

  • Dr. Seuss's Horse Museum Lesson Plans
    What’s it all about? A visit to an art museum entirely dedicated to horses invites readers to think about how artists share their ideas with us, and how the art they make is shaped by their experiences. While focused on visual art, Dr. Seuss’s Horse Museum offers a perfect springboard to explore language arts and history at the same time. An energetic and knowledgeable horse tour guide (yes, a horse!) shepherds young visitors through a museum featuring reproductions of real paintings, sculptures, and textiles. Our equine guide asks the kids to not just look at the art, but also to think about the artist and what they thought, felt, and wanted to tell us when creating their piece. He invites the museum visitors and readers to Look, Think, and Talk. Explore point of view, meaning, artistic expression, and interpretation with Dr. Seuss’s Horse Museum. Note to teachers: Most of the ideas here are adaptable to different age groups, so read through the activities for all ages. You can adapt activities based on your needs or interests. You’ll find lots of interesting ideas. Text TM & copyright © by Dr. Seuss Enterprises, L.P. 2019. Illustrations copyright © 2019 by Andrew Joyner Seuss Enterprises, L.P. TM & copyright © by Dr. Text A never-before- published book about creating and looking at art! Based on a manuscript and sketches discovered in 2013, this book is like a visit to a museum—with a horse as your guide! Explore how different artists have seen horses, and maybe even find a new way of looking at them yourself.

  • Was the Cat in the Hat Black?: Exploring Dr. Seuss's Racial
    Was the Cat in the Hat Black?: Exploring Dr. Seuss’s Racial Imagination Philip Nel Children's Literature, Volume 42, 2014, pp. 71-98 (Article) Published by Johns Hopkins University Press DOI: https://doi.org/10.1353/chl.2014.0019 For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/546522 Access provided at 14 Jan 2020 17:25 GMT from Syracuse University Was the Cat in the Hat Black?: Exploring Dr. Seuss’s Racial Imagination Philip Nel In 1955, Dr. Seuss and William Spaulding—director of Houghton Mifflin’s educational division—stepped into the publisher’s elevator at 2 Park Street in Boston. As Seuss’s biographers tell us, the elevator operator was an elegant, petite woman who wore white gloves and a secret smile (Morgan and Morgan 154). They don’t mention that she was Annie Williams, nor do they say that she was African American (Silvey). Seuss was on that elevator because Spaulding thought he could solve the Why Johnny Can’t Read crisis by writing a better reading primer. When Seuss sketched this book’s feline protagonist, he gave him Mrs. Williams’s white gloves, her sly smile, and her color. However, she is but one African American influence on Seuss’s most famous character. One source for that red bow tie is Krazy Kat, the black, ambiguously gen- dered creation of biracial cartoonist George Herriman (Cohen 325). Seuss, who admired what he called “the beautifully insane sanities” of Krazy Kat (qtd. in Nel, Dr. Seuss 70), also draws upon the traditions of minstrelsy—an influence that emerges first in a minstrel show he wrote for his high school.
