Hey have you heard...Dr. Seuss' book "What Pet Should I Get?" was released at the end of last month!

Last year, I did a poetic tribute to Theodore Giesel aka Dr. Seuss, and many others here have written tributes to the genius.
To honor him, and say hip-hip hooray to the poet, I am going to run a back to back Dr. Seuss themed contest...So here is the heads up for all you who read, because I want to Seuss-ify the soup this week, and I'm just waiting for two more enties for the puppy love contest so I can post a new one (hint hint)...
The first contest will be...go to this website....
http://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/61105.Dr_Seuss
and choose one of the quotes by Dr. Seuss to use as a prompt for your poem...
And please make sure you give him props by including the quote you have chosen in on your write.
And second second Seuss-spectacular contest
will be to write a story poem in the Seuss like style that is appropriate for children, and the fun part about this one will be that I will have my four year old daughter help me decide the winners, and have a great week of bedtime stories for her to listen to...
So put on your thinking caps and get ready for the contests, I hope this is as enjoyable as I think it is going to be. While you're at it, reach into your inner child, pick up an old Dr. Seuss book and enjoy.
