Boyer 02-06-2001 By Mike Shewey on Friday, February 26, 2021 20 Years Dr. Seuss Theodor Geisel, better known to the world as Dr. Seuss, the author and illustrator of such beloved children�s books as �The Cat in the Hat� and �Green Eggs and Ham,� is born in Springfield, Massachusetts on March 2, 1904. Geisel, who used his middle name (which was also his mother�s Les Loggins III maiden name) as his pen name, wrote 48 books�including some for adults�that have sold well over 02-20-2001 200 million copies and been translated into multiple languages. Dr. Seuss books are known for their 20 Years whimsical rhymes and quirky characters, which have names like the Lorax and the Sneetches and live in places like Whoville. PP Dan K. Robie 02-01-2011 Geisel graduated from Dartmouth College, where he was editor of the school�s humor magazine, and 10 Years studied at Oxford University. There he met Helen Palmer, his first wife and the person who encouraged him to become a professional illustrator. Back in America, Geisel worked as a cartoonist for a variety of Ryan Maloney magazines and in advertising. 02-07-2013 8 Years The first children�s book that Geisel wrote and illustrated, �And to Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street,� was rejected by over two dozen publishers before making it into print in 1937. Geisel�s first bestseller, �The Cat in the Hat,� was published in 1957. The story of a mischievous cat in a tall striped Richard L Miller hat came about after his publisher asked him to produce a book using 220 new-reader vocabulary words 02-06-2018 that could serve as an entertaining alternative to the school reading primers children found boring. 3 Years Other Dr. Seuss classics include �Yertle the Turtle,� �If I Ran the Circus,� �Fox in Socks� and Wedding Anniversaries �One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish.� PP Vicki-lynne Gloger March 5th DACdb Training Monday, February 22, 2021 Steve F Madden Make payments March 13th Payments may be made by clicking "My Data" and the "My Finance Statement."

  • Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr
    Hey Kids, Meet Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss) American Cartoonist (1922-2000) Theodor Seuss Geisel was born March 2, 1904 in Springfield, Massachusetts. His father, Theodor Robert Geisel, and grandfather were brewmasters in the city. His mother, Henrietta Seuss Geisel, often put Ted and his sister Marnie to sleep with rhymes she remembered from her childhood. It was his mother that Ted credits for his ability to create rhymes. Ted's memories of his youth in Springfield can be seen throughout his books. Illustrations of Horton along streams in the Jungle of Nool recall the watercourses in Springfield's Forest Park while the truck driven by Sylvester McMonkey McBean in The Sneetches may very well be the tractor that Ted saw on the streets of his hometown. In the fall of 1921 Ted left Springfield to attend Dartmouth College. While there he became editor-in-chief of the Dartmouth College's Jack-O-Lantern humor magazine. Each contribution was signed "Seuss". It was the first time we would use his middle name to identify his work. In an attempt to please his father, Ted went on to Oxford University in England after graduating from Darmouth. While at Oxford he met his wife Helen Palmer. He also discovered that academic studies bored him so he left the university and traveled Europe instead. When Geisel returned to the United States he began to pursue a career as a cartoonist. The Saturday Evening Post published a few of his early cartoons but most of his efforts were devoted to creating advertising campaigns for Standard Oil.

  • Theodor Seuss Geisel 1904-1991 Author Study Melissa Kaplan
    10 Theodor Seuss Geisel 1904-1991 Author Study Melissa Kaplan Education 524 Dr. Jayne DeLawter Sonoma State University Copyright November 14, 1995 Like many children since 1937, Dr. Seuss was a part of my early life with such books as Green Eggs and Ham, The Cat in the Hat, And to Think That! Saw It All on Mulberry Street, Horton Hatches an Egg, stories of the Sneetches, and the east-going Grinch’s memorable confrontation with the west-going Grinch. They were fun books to read, certainly more fun and interesting than the books used at school to teach us to read...Dick and Jane were interesting only for the first several months, after which they were so boring that you knew you would never play with them if they ever came by. Not, perhaps, that you would ever really want to play with the Cat in the Hat. After all, how in the world would you tell your parents what happened if the Cat didn’t put everything right again? I re-read the books and some of the newer ones when my brother, almost four years my junior, was learning to read. By that time I was off into other books and other interests and, while they were colorful and fun, no longer seemed so entertaining. Despite that, however, I can still easily recall drawings from some of my favorite early Seuss stories. Several years ago, a book title in a catalog caught my attention: The Tough Coughs as He Ploughs the Dough. Working as I then was with many people for whom English was a second language, and trying to deal with creative spelling not only inside the office but on correspondence going out to clients, the often seemingly illogical spelling of words was always simmering in my mind somewhere.

  • Red Feather Journal Volume 6 Issue 2 Fall 2015 1 Dr. Seuss's Anti-Nazi
    Dr. Seuss’s Anti-Nazi Parables By Mark I. West, University of North Carolina at Charlotte In the summer of 1936, Theodore Seuss Geisel, now known as Dr. Seuss, and his first wife, Helen Palmer Geisel, travelled to Europe where they visited Germany among other countries. He was thirty-two at the time and had already achieved considerable success as the creator of a popular advertising campaign for an insecticide called Flit. The substantial income he derived from his work in advertising made such trips possible. He and Helen always took great pleasure in their frequent and extensive excursions, and they were looking forward to this European excursion. He had visited Germany before and had enjoyed the experience. As a German-American, Seuss felt a certain affinity with the German people, so he fully expected to enjoy this visit, too. However, his 1936 visit to Germany proved to be a disturbing experience for Seuss and his wife. The rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party appalled him. Seeing the impact of Nazism first- hand persuaded Seuss that Hitler posed a grave danger not only to Germany but also to the wider world (Morgan & Morgan 79-80; West 54). When Seuss returned home to America, he felt compelled to respond to this danger. Philip Nel, an expert on Dr. Seuss’s work, argues that Seuss’s response to the rise of Nazism and the outbreak of World War II played a transformative role in Seuss’s life. In an article published in Mosaic in 2001, Nel examines this transformation and concludes that in many ways World War II “created Dr.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH DOCTOR ON THE WARPATH: HOW THE SECOND WORLD WAR MADE THEODOR SEUSS GEISEL BRANDON ELLIOTT GATTO Spring 2010 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in English with honors in English Reviewed and approved* by the following: Sanford Schwartz Associate Professor of English Thesis Supervisor Janet Lyon Associate Professor of English, Women’s Studies, and Science, Technology, and Society Honors Adviser Daniel Hade Associate Professor of Language and Literacy Second Reader * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i Abstract The stories of Dr. Seuss, one of the most popular and best-selling children’s authors of all time, are often associated with fantastic characters, whimsical settings, and witty rhymes. While such facets are commonplace in the world of children’s literature, the ability of Theodor Seuss Geisel to transform reality into a nonsense arena of eloquence and simplicity is perhaps what made him a symbol of American culture. Despite his popularity, however, the historical context and primary influences of the author’s memorable lessons are not critically evaluated as much as those of other genre personalities. Many of his children’s books have clear, underlying messages regarding societal affairs and humanity, but deeper connections have yet to be established between Geisel’s pedagogical themes and personal agenda. Accordingly, this thesis strives to prove that the most inherent and significant influences of Dr. Seuss derive from his experiences as a political cartoonist during the Second World War era. Having garnered little recognition before World War II, Geisel’s satirical political illustrations and subsequent war-based work helped shape him into the rousing, unparalleled children’s author that generations have come to read and remember.
