On March 2nd, Read Across America day will celebrate the life and works of the beloved author, Dr. Seuss.
As Kathleen's blog [3]announced, celebrations [4] will be held at all Harris County Public Libraries throughout the week.
I thought that it would be fun to list some of my favorite biographies on Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel). His life was just as amazing as his books.
