The Cat in the Hat was my first book. I read it at 8 after years of struggling. I was gifted at math and art. But my reading ability struggled to develop. In adulthood I learned that it was Autism. But I struggled for years, often crying because I couldn't read. The Cat in the Hat changed that. I'm now a large advocate for the Dr. Seuss books having bought a lot of used ones up to donate to libraries wherever I live.

As an adult, I actually read a lot, between 10-15 novels a year. My mom read while we ate lunch when I was preschool age. I would get one of my Dr. Suess books and pretend to read too. I was probably only about 4 or 5 at the time. I still remember that. Great memory of time with my mom. This would have been early 70's. In my 20's I could read a Dr. Seuss book to my kids and not even actually read. I had read them so much I had them memorized. I would use different voices for each character. Makes me feel small to know that I will never affect that many people and thankful for the types of people. Thank you, Dr Seuss for this gift and I so enjoyed the fantasy. I was that kid whose mind wandered.

"One of Geisel's friends..." That friend was Bennett Cerf, founder of Random House. The bet was for 50 bucks and Cerf often talked about how that was the best $50 bet he ever lost. Cerf was a hell of a raconteur and a painfully unfunny teller of funny jokes. Now there's a great person for you to do a bio on. A relatively self-made man who gambled his entire fortune on buying up a random library of 100 titles and founding what became the largest book publisher in America, second only to Sears and Roebuck during his lifetime.

In retrospect the teachers seemed more torn up than any of us kids. A rare moment of simple bliss in my early childhood, one indulged in without really understanding how it was the tragedy of losing a national hero and icon that beget it.

I wrote a biography on him. here it is so far: Theodore Seuss Geisel was born in 1904 to German immigrants. As a child, his favorite pastime was to go to the zoo with his family every Sunday. He was so good at drawing animals that his father bought him a sketchbook that added to every weekend, and his mom allowed him to paint on his bedroom walls. His animals always looked like characters and from a young age, they could tell that he had a whimsical imagination. After prohibition in the 1920's, his father could no longer run the brewery and actually chose to become the head of the zoo instead. Ted Geisel could now go to the zoo and sketch the animals as often as he wanted, and he continued to do this for the rest of his life. He was accepted to Dartmouth College, and he started drawing short comics for their humor magazine. In his senior year, Geisel became the editor, and this was the beginning of a lifelong literally career. Since he was removed from position as editor he decided to secretly continue contributing to the magazine, but went by the pen name "Dr. Seuss”

“The Cat in the Hat” was the first “real book” that I read by myself. (The boring Dick, Jane and Sally books we were forced to read at school don’t count.) Yertle the Turtle, the Sneetches, the Hinkle Horn Honking Club (from the Sleep Book), Thidwick the big hearted moose and Horton the Elephant were and continue to be some of my best friends in literature. My favorite word of all of the good doctor’s creations still is floobooberbabbuberbub from “On Beyond Zebra”. I fell in love with “The 500 Fingers of Dr. T” after seeing it at a kiddie matinee when I was 10. When I was pregnant with my son I read Dr. Seuss to him in utero and continued to do so for many years. I now give Dr. Seuss books as baby and birthday gifts (for young and older folks alike). Life without the the doctor’s books would not be worth living in my opinion. He still encourages me to be silly and creative regardless of my age. What a fantastic legacy he left us!

Good morning Simon! How's it going? I love this biography! I grew up reading Dr.Seuss books as a child.! Oaks of glue at in Hanover New Hampshire while my mother was preparing to graduate from Dartmouth with a master's degree in Liberal Arts. So I hung out around Hanover New Hampshire as I was growing up in Vermont. Even though I clean floors and bathrooms for a living, I consider myself an unpublished writer.

Good show. What an introduction! Loved it. Your channels are the best information channels that I have seen on KZitem.

As a person who grew up on doctor Seuss, it broke my heart to learn about some of the rumors entailing him floating about.
