Dr. Seuss

Researching about this great author helped me understand why he wrote certain stories. I had no idea that Dr.Seuss wrote the story of “How the grinch stole christmas”.  The stories undertones are  especially important to study with the students in the classroom. We should try to transmit to our students that Christmas is not an opportunity to simply spend lots of money or to eat as much as you can, it is more about love, sharing, and for some remembering those who are not with us anymore.

Apart from this, the fact that Seuss was a cartoonist and an ilustrator says a lot about his creativity and capacity to represent the worlds he used to believe in when he was writing. A very complete author with morals in mind in every story he wrote as he wanted the children to understand the world they lived in. Additionally, Seuss  cared a lot about social problems, which I admire, as using stories to relay social norms, trends and even rules is easier diluted within a childrens story.

I emplore you to read some of his work especially the cat in the hat, as it was written during the great depression and it shows how to connect with a real situation through the characters in the book.

Therefore, after reading only but a handful of Dr Seuss´s work, I am now a great fan and will endeavour to continue reading his other weird and wonderful adaptations on the world that we live in.
