  • 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.

  • 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.
