A Step 3 Biography Reader about Theodor Geisel and his transformation
from a doodler into the beloved Dr. Seuss. Little Ted Geisel always had
a sketchpad and pencil in hand. He was a Boy Scout with a penchant for
creating zany creatures. He grew up with a love of books and words from
his mother, and his inventor father spawned a wildly imaginative and
perfectionist side. It's no wonder that these qualities led to the
beloved work of Dr. Seuss, the Great Doodler.
Follow his career as an ad man, political cartoonist, creator of
forty-five indelible children's books, and Pulitzer Prize winner. Not
bad for a lifelong doodler! Includes fun facts and several of Dr.
Seuss's original sketches and artwork!
