With Love To Dr Seuss

Little Cindy Lou Who runs a cafe round the bend. If you are lonely, that's where you'll find a friend. Because all of the characters who live in Whoville land eat colorful eggs there. (But no green eggs for Sam I Am!) My friend is Yertle, whose house is his shell. He has learned not to want to rule all pretty well. I talk with Horton who says he hears a Who (or two). Horton champions small creatures showing us Whos are true! All 91 of us thank Dr. Seuss who brought us to life So we could tackle problems, like teach how to beat strife. We teach compassion and joy that makes us sing. We help children learn, with funny characters, what love can bring.

Thanks, Kim, for your review of Dr. Seuss. Now I hear it's his family who is withdrawing his poems. If so, shame on them. Soon we will have no history left.

Absolutely Ann! Thank you for speaking out in rhyme. WHO is this voice, hidden from view, condemning this man, and his loveable crew?

Exactly, Ken Exactly, Ken! You say it well, too. People have gone crazy getting rid of our history. As if Dr. Seuss, of all people, wanted to do harm! Growl. Thanks for writing.
