The Man Who Was Dr Seuss - The Life and Work of Theodor Geisel by Thomas Fensch

"The Man Who Was Dr. Seuss" is the first personal AND literary biography of Theodor Geisel, who wrote so many classic children's books: "Green Eggs and Ham," "How the Grinch Stole Christmas!" and many others. This book reveals the morals children instinctively understand from the Dr. Seuss books and how Geisel came to write (and illustrate) them. Engaging and charming literary biography.
