Last week, my children’s preschool declared it “Dr. Seuss Week” in celebration of the author’s birthday. The next day, the estate of Theodor Seuss Geisel, or Dr. Seuss author of 60 books, with 700 million copies sold around the world announced that six of his books would be removed from future publication because “they portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong.”
I wasn’t surprised by this news, and honestly, I was a bit relieved.
A few months ago, my family received a hand-me-down copy of
And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street as part of a collected edition of Dr. Seuss.
