Theodor Seuss Geisel - better known to millions of his fans as
Dr. Seuss is quite simply the most beloved children’s book author
in the world.
Brilliant, playful, and always respectful of children, Dr. Seuss

youngsters and parents. In the process, he helped millions of kids
learn to read.
Dr. Seuss was born Theodor Geisel in Springfield, Massachusetts,
on March 2, 1904. After graduating from Dartmouth College in 1925,
he went to Oxford University, intending to acquire a doctorate in
literature.
Geisel published his first children''s book, And to Think That I
Saw It on Mulberry Street, in 1937, after 27 publishers rejected
it.
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1984, an Academy Award, three
Emmy Awards, three Grammy Awards, and three Caldecott Honors,
Geisel wrote and illustrated 44 books. While Theodor Geisel died on
