I just came across this FoxNews article about The Cat in the Hat turning 50 years old. I remember my sisters reading that, as well as other Dr. Seuss books, to me when I was little. I also read it to my children.
What a trouble maker that Cat was! As a child I wished he'd come stir up some trouble in my house when my mother wasn't home. But if the truth be known, my true hero's were Thing 1 and Thing 2! I loved how they came out of their box and went straight to the job of having fun!
As a mother, I'm glad The Cat in the Hat never paid my kids a visit. Imagine the mess to clean up if he did! ;) And yet, he how to have fun. Shouldn't we also take that wisdom to heart?
I'm glad I found that article for the unexpected trip down memory lane.
I think the first Dr. Seuss book I ever read (or memorized) was One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. What was your first book?
