Theodor Seuss Geisel March 2, 1904 - September 24, 1991) was an American children's author and cartoonist. He is known for his work writing and illustrating more than 60 books under the pen name Dr. Seuss. His work includes many of the most popular children's books of all time, being translated into more than 20 languages. Geisel adopted the name "Dr. Seuss" at Lincoln College, Oxford. He left Oxford in 1927 to begin his career as an illustrator and cartoonist for Vanity Fair, Life, and various other publications. He also worked as an illustrator for advertising campaigns, and as a political cartoonist for the New York newspaper PM. He published his first children's book And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street in 1937. During World War II, he worked in the animation and film department of the United States Army. After the war, Geisel returned to writing children's books, writing acclaimed works such as If I Ran the Zoo, Horton Hears a Who!, The Cat in the Hat, How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, Green Eggs and Ham, One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish, The Sneetches and Other Stories, The Lorax, The Butter Battle Book, and Oh, the Places You'll Go! He received two Primetime Emmy Awards. In 1984, he won a Pulitzer Prize Special Citation. Dr. Seuss's ABC, otherwise referred to as The ABC, is a 1963 English language alphabet book written by Dr. Seuss starring two anthropomorphic yellow dogs named Ichabod and Izzy as they journey through the alphabet and meet characters whose names begin with each letter. Dr. Seuss drew inspiration from memories of his mother, Nettie Geisel, who read stories to Ted and his sister, Marnie Geisel, at bedtime. He and Marnie also took piano lessons. Marnie practiced daily while he could be bribed with books. Whenever he did well, she took him to Johnson's Book Store and let him choose a book as a reward. Dr. Seuss's ABC was published as a Beginner Book in 1963, alongside Hop on Pop. Peter Lewis, writing for Common Sense Media, gave the book positive reviews, stating "Dr. Seuss turns the alphabet from fifty-two shapes and twenty-six sounds one has to memorize into an exercise in rhymery and wordplay. Uppercase and lowercase letters are taken for a spirited airing, matched with an apt selection of fun words, all set in the suitably absurd world of Seuss characters and creatures". He also compared the book to Dr. Seuss The letters each take a turn in the spotlight and then are wedded to a few well-chosen words that convey the Seuss worldview of the high humor to be found in mental play: 'Many mumbling mice are making midnight music in the moonlight . mighty nice.'") Peter Lewis commented that Dr. Seuss's illustrations "are all about possibility - quacking quacker-oo, policeman in a pail, ten tired turtles on a tuttle-tuttle tree - that same sense rubs off on the letters: Here, take these letters, they're fun! Rub 'em together and see what you come up with. There is no better way to take the anxiety out of something than to make friends with it." Sam Tyler, writing for The Bookbag, said Seuss plucked ideas from his books and imagination and threw them onto the page. This means that this ABC outing is more varied and fun than most." The Washington Post called it one of "the best-selling Dr. Seuss books of all time".…
