In Dr. Seuss's world, the grown-up gets a taste of his own medicine. Next thing you know, your children will be telling you what to eat. Get ready for candy, cookies and chocolate milk, every…single…day.

Credit: Wikimedia Commons Theodore Geisel is best known by the pseudonym Dr. Seuss (the correct pronunciation of Seuss rhymes with "voice" not "loose"), perhaps the most recognizable name in literature. Every December we’re treated to How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and each year young kids are introduced to classics like Green Eggs and Ham and The Cat in the Hat, yet the wider public does not appear to know much about the man behind these famous works. To gear up for the release of the CGI-animated film Horton Hears A Who!, we aim to change that by presenting five things you didn’t know about Dr. Seuss, the most familiar and beloved pen name in children’s literature. 1- Dr. Seuss adopted his pseudonym by drinking gin Geisel’s

On the second morning, when the breakfast bell clanged, a mad footrace ensued. Kids sprung from their bunks and shot from cabins in the New Hampshire woods to the dining hall.
The hundreds of friends that I had, dwindled down to about ten or so that I keep in touch with on a regular basis. Even though it wasn’t fun finding this out at first, this is something that really helped me realize what a true friendship was. The true friendships that I made while I lived there I still have to this day, even though there is a distance of thousands of miles. Yet, through all this, one of the greatest things that influenced me is the summer when I moved to Virginia. I had absolutely no one here that I knew, I spent that whole summer by myself, but in all reality there was someone there all along.
