“I Speak For The Trees!”
Beloved children’s book author Theodor Seuss Geisel, aka Dr. Seuss, was born on this day, March 2nd, in 1904! I loved Dr. Seuss’ books as a kid, my favorite being McElligot’s Pool, which I owned. Of the several animated features made from Seuss’ books, one of the best and most enduring is The Lorax, a thinly veiled cautionary tale of environmental exploitation, which is even more timely today than it was when it was written in 1971.
Roses are red
Dr. Seuss is dead.
If he were alive
He could answer the question that all of us want to know:
To come up with the idea for green eggs and ham,
How many lines did he have to snort of blow.
Xxx
My fav when I was a kid. Used to give me the craziest dreams too, LOL.
