July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |
| Did you read Dr. Suess as a child? Read his books to your children? What do you think of these quotes by Dr. Suess, is he right or simply writing sentences that rhyme for children? ![Merit Badge in BCoF 2

Congratulations on your virtual blogging adventure!](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/group-BCoF_2-1901868_14.gif) Hi.I don't know when Dr. Suess was first published. I did not read him as a child. I read the little Train That Could, Heidi, The Little Puppy, Little Dot, Tarzan, The Radio Boys, Seven Cousins, and a book I loved about a little kitten that got into a bucket of paint which was a fuzzy book story. And other books too numerous to count. I did read some Dr. Suess stories to my children at least the second two. My take on Dr.Suess is kind of musical, because of the rhyming content. I think the author of these stories was trying to impress good conduct on children by using rhymes and he used a different psychological approach in the way he revealed the story content to the reader. Theodor Suess Geisel was well educated and actually seems to put into play something of his experiences when he was in college. In the end he became the originator of some fascinating children's stories. Fate Keeps on Happening to Me. A quote by Anita Loos (an American writer) |
