Dr Seuss was born on March 2, 1904 on Howard Street in Springfield, Massachusetts. He published 46 children's books, the most liked is:
If I Ran the Zoo (1950),
Horton Hears a Who (1955),
And How the Grinch Stole Chismas (1957),
The Cat and the Hat (1957), and
Green Eggs and Ham (1960)
My favorite Dr. Seuss book is "Oh, the Places You'll Go!"
But sadly he died of throat cancer in 1991, on September 24th, of the age of 87. He was cremated and his ashes were scattered on December 1, 1995 (four years after his death).
On April 4, it is traditional for students returning from trips to overnight at Dartmouth's Moosilauke Ravine Lodge, where they are served green eggs and ham for breakfast in honor of Dr. Seuss. On April 4, 2012, the Dartmouth Medical School renamed itself the Audrey and Theodor Geisel School of Medicine in honor of their many years of generosity to the college.
Dr. Seuss has a star on the Hollywood Walk of fame, at 6500 block of Hollywood Boulevard.
I think he had a good life.
