Dr. Seuss

There is a Dr. Seuss movie playing right now in our home...one of Nick's faves. I have it memorized."Big Y, Little Y- a yawning yellow yack. Big Z, Little Z- a zizzer zazzer zuz!" I mean it's easy to remember nonsense, no wonder kids love this stuff. We have every Seuss story and I have no problem reading them to Nick because I have so much fun with the language. What a wordsmith Seuss was, he found rhymes and patterns and put them together in a very sing-song, musical way. Oh- they just mentioned Jake the Pillow Snake! Who knew there were Pillow Snakes in our world? "Nice ice for sale- ten cents a pail!" The ice won't melt in Seuss's world. It's just simply there, waiting for a nice pair of pink pajamas or green eggs and ham to join the story. Or waiting for Mr. Brown to moo (can you?)
Thanks for the fun, Dr. Seuss!
