Dr Suess rocks

Recommended Posts

Man, I gotta say one of the best things about having kids is rediscovering things like Dr Suess.

I think Dr Suess has probably had a bigger influence on my psyche than I've ever realised... I haven't really thought about it until now, but the way I draw and the way I rhyme have probably both taken some direction from latent memories of things like "The Sleep Book" and "One Fish, Two Fish"

I've been really getting off on Fox in Socks recently and thought I'd share this interpretation.

I like The Lorax. It has an awesome moral, it's hard to believe it was writen so long ago.

Always loved reading my daughters Dr Suess

Say!

I like green eggs and ham!

I do!! I like them, Sam-I-am!

And I would eat them in a boat!

And I would eat them with a goat...

And I will eat them in the rain.

And in the dark. And on a train.

And in a car. And in a tree.

They are so good so good you see!

So I will eat them in a box.

And I will eat them with a fox.

And I will eat them in a house.

And I will eat them with a mouse.

And I will eat them here and there.

Say! I will eat them ANYWHERE!

I do so like

green eggs and ham!

Thank you!

Thank you,

Sam-I-am

Glad others are digging it too.

Really interesting to hear that, but I guess not surprising. I had trouble finding an Dr Suess at the shop where I bought mine from... browsed around the kids section for a few minutes and eventually had to ask the guy working. Turns out the reason I couldn't find it was because there was a dedicated Dr Suess section with all the books stored with spines facing out.

I like The Lorax. It has an awesome moral, it's hard to believe it was writen so long ago.

 

I can't remember the Lorax, but a few people have mentioned it to me so I reckon this might be the next on the list.

Nothing like a good book review...

:wink:

 

Yeah, I've read this before. Very nice. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I used to have 'The Butter Battle Book' on VHS as a kid. That movie was awesome.

Which now Wikipedia tells me:

The Butter Battle Book was once removed from the shelves of public libraries during the Cold War because of the book's position regarding the arms race.[2]

It's no surprise really.
