Becoming Dr. Seuss: Theodor Geisel and the Making of an American Imagination

by Brian Jay Jones Author

A definitive biography of a classic American icon. Theodor Geisel is as well known as "Dr Seuss" as are his characters like the Cat in the Hat, Horton, The Grinch, and many more who shaped countless childhoods. This book presents a far reaching and fascinating look at Geisel's life, from his career in advertising and political cartoons through his more radical convictions that often came through in his children's books. Learn the life of a man who took his work as a children's author as seriously as any vocation and taught generations the joys of reading while learning about empathy and treating others with respect and care.
