Dr. Seuss Books
Dr. Seuss is one of the most popular children’s book authors of all time. His books are loved by many generations and have been translated into over 20 languages.
Theodor Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss, was a famous American writer and illustrator of children’s books, political cartoons, and advertisements for many major American corporations from the 1920s to the 1990s.
He is best known for his work as an author and illustrator of children’s books such as “Green Eggs and Ham” (1960), “One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish” (1960), “The Cat in the Hat” (1957), “How the Grinch Stole Christmas!” (1957)
He attended Dartmouth College before dropping out to pursue his career as an artist. He served in World War II as a lieutenant commander and was involved with the production of propaganda films for the Navy. After the war, he returned to civilian life and began writing children’s books.
Seuss was a pioneer in his field of writing for children. He used a lot of rhyming words, repetition, and onomatopoeia to help kids learn how to read.
His work has been translated into more than 20 languages around the world. Geisel died in 1991 at the age of 87, but his legacy is still alive today through his work in children’s literature.
