This is the Blog I had from earlier this week in the wrong spot!!
Week 2
I have always loved the Cat in the Hat series. There is no particular rhyme or reason except they were exceptionally imaginative stories and as a child, I had a wild imagination so I would pretend my eggs were green when I was eating them or that microscopic "Whos" were watching me from Whoville.
I have read and seen many stories about children, but none have touched my heart as much as my own son, Xavier. You all have read enough of my posts to know they are fueled with passion and determination for not only him to be the successful, independent adult I know he will be but for other children to enjoy that same success that I hope to provide in the very near future.

Dianna,
ReplyDeleteI love Dr. Seuss's stories as well! Their rhythm and familiarity are so comforting to me. I also love that as I've grown older, each of his stories has continued to bring meaning. When we were little, stories like "Green Eggs and Ham" taught us to be open to new things, and now that we're older, stories like "Oh the Places You'll Go" teach us to keep reaching. And his books lend themselves so well to memorable activities like actual green eggs in the cafeteria or visits from memorable characters like the Cat in the hat!
