Celebrating Dr. Seuss

Yesterday marked Dr. Seuss' birthday, and there was plenty to celebrate. The most famous author of children's books would have been 109 years old.

As a child, I loved reading Dr. Seuss' books. The rhyming and the creative and imaginative words and people captivated me. As an adult, nothing has changed. In fact, I love his books even more. I can appreciate the fine art of creative writing much more as an adult than I did as a child.

On Thursday and Friday mornings, I spent a few hours with Harper's classroom visiting other kindergarten classrooms for a Dr. Seuss round robin. OMGosh! I felt like a kid again. It was so much fun listening to the teachers read their favorite Dr. Seuss books, and the fun projects were a perfect complement.

Harper's favorite project was the fish bowl she made for "one fish two fish red fish blue fish".

Do you have a favorite Dr. Seuss book? What is it? I love "Oh, the Places You'll Go!".
