Why Dr Seuss is cancelled: Some US schools won’t celebrate him in 2021
Is Dr Seuss cancelled? The best-selling author looks to follow in the footsteps of Mr Potato Head, who’s also been cancelled in 2021.
In the lead-up to National Read Across America Day it seems as though children’s book author Dr Seuss has been cancelled. The national day usually celebrates reading and Dr Seuss’ work on March 2nd.
However, due to the uncovering of his earlier works, the author of
The Cat in the Hat,
The Grinch Who Stole Christmas and
Green Eggs and Ham won’t be celebrated this year in certain schools.
