[COLOR=deeppink]Ah, yes, the greatest childrens writer of all time!

Heh, when Cera first informed me of this, I didn't realize this Geisal fellow was Dr. Seuss. I even said...

"Well, I don't know if he's the greatest. What about Dr. Seuss?"

Or something along those lines...[/COLOR]

[SIZE=1]Back during World War 2 Geisel worked on some propaganda cartoons for the government. They were about how normal Americans could find out if their fellow neighbors were German spies. I wasa lucky enough to see one of them during an animation festival I went to a few months ago... it was very weird to see Dr. Seuss making war cartoons, but it was before he even started writing children's books.[/SIZE]

One of the videos i've seen is where two kids jump on to their day who's lying on the couch - the voice-over accompanying it was the lines from hop on pop. Poor guy, one of them ruined the crown jewels too.

[COLOR=darkblue]Hey man, Hop on Pop is cool! Let's all hop. Hop on Pop. Hee hee. *pulls that book from her basment* I love this book! [/COLOR]

[COLOR=darkblue]Too bad Mr. Geisel is gone, he probably woulda wrote some pretty cool other books too, maybe even beyond child stories.[/COLOR] :)

[SIZE=1]I was just about to reccomend that book to you, I need stupider friends. It would make me feel smarter...

And I believe his first work for children was done after the war and his work for Warner Brothers. But I'm not the one doing the assignment on him now am I?[/SIZE]
