Dr . Seuss ’ s Birthday By : Amanda McClain
Thursday , March 2 nd is Dr . Seuss ’ s Birthday ! What better way to celebrate than to read all that you can read ? On this day , across the country , thousands of schools , libraries , and communities participate by gathering together and just simply reading . This day is officially called National Read Across America Day ! There are 44 books which Dr . Seuss himself wrote and illustrated . The first book Seuss wrote and illustrated was “ The Cat in the Hat ” in 1937 . He had written this because he was afraid that children were not learning to read . Unlike many , Seuss never had children so he made up an imaginary daughter named Chrysanthemum-Pearl , and he dedicated almost all of his books to her . Seuss has made a legacy , influencing many of us just through the words and illustrations in his books . Even though he is not here with us today , his legacy will continue on March 2 nd as people across the country continue to read in his honor .
