My favorite quote for the day:
“I don’t think my book is going to change society. But I’m naïve enough to think that society will be changed by examination of ideas through books and the press, and that information can prove to be greater than the dissemination of stupidity.” –Dr. Seuss
Publication of six Dr. Seuss books will be canceled:
“McElligot’s Pool,”
“On Beyond Zebra!,”
“Scrambled Eggs Super!,”
“The Cat’s Quizzer,”
“And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street” and
“If I Ran the Zoo.”

I knew little of Theodor Seuss Geisel and his support of the WWII war effort before reading this BBC article: “The surprisingly radical politics of Dr Seuss.”
