Dr. Seuss

Dr. Seuss is a slim, easy-to-read biography that imparts the necessary facts about a great author/illustrator in just 24 pages. While a few of the pictures are very loosely related to the text (ex. a picture of what must be the current Springfield, Illinois, the associated text says he was born there in 1904. I doubt the high rises were built at that time), the text and most of the pictures give the reader a pretty good idea of the special man that he was.
There is a nice “Quick Stats” page as well as a “Key Dates” page, which bullets his life clearly. Non-fiction features are present: Table of contents, glossary, index.
Buy if you need to update your Seuss biography.

About Candy Ranney

Candy is an elementary school librarian in Shelton, WA at the school where she was a student (so many years ago!). Her library is unique in that she brings her background and love of biology to her students in many ways. Not only does she have an awesome selection of science books; she also has a beaver, bobcat and mink sitting on her shelves and a variety of jarred specimens for her students to study. When she's not in the library, she is taking care of her baby trees on her tree farm and hanging out with her family and many pets.
