Dr. Seuss was very good at persevering. He went through a lot in his life like World War I and Prohibition. His family came from Germany, and it was hard for them in America. They sold beer and they lost their business. Dr. Seuss persevered through criticism and disappointment when he tried to get To Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street published. It took twenty-eight submissions! He didn’t give up. He was the man in writing and illustrating children’s books. Dr. Seuss communicates by writing clearly through the arts and teaching lessons. Books like The Lorax are about helping the environment, and The Sneetches is about stopping discrimination. He taught lessons around the world with his books in classrooms.

Do you remember reading Dr. Seuss’s books when you were little and how much joy he brought to your heart? Dr. Seuss communicates by writing clearly, and he persevered when his book got rejected 27 times by the Vanguard Press. Because he persevered, he’s written books like Horton Hears a Who, Oh The Places You Will Go, and Horton lays an Egg that at least give you one message about the ESLRs in a way that is still telling a story. He’s also contributed to magazines like Life, Vanity Fair, and Judge. Dr. Seuss communicates through the arts by rhyming in all his books to catch your attention and make reading fun. He communicates clearly by using catchy titles to explain what the book is about. It’s almost like Dr. Seuss is there. Underneath all that creativity is a wise message. Unfortunately, he passed away on September 24, 1991. We all miss him because his books gave us all happiness and joy in our lives. His fun and easy to read stories inspired us all. Dr. Seuss you will be remembered.
