We visit with favorites like Horton, the Grinch, and little Marco from his very first book, <em>And To Think I Saw It On Mulberry Street<\/em>, as well as get to know a not-very-nice bullying insect called a Kwuggerbug, who manipulates Horton into finding beezlenuts for him. Dr. Seuss wrote and illustrated 43 children\u2019s books during his career. His learn-to-read simple stories, embedded with morals and told in silly, rhyming cadence, are our favorites, hands-down.
