Failed Dr. Seuss Book Titles

'I do not like them...'

'I do not like them...'

Dr. Seuss’ birthday was yesterday, so this entry is late. Then again, so is the good doctor, so I say it’s a wash.

It could be argued that Mr. Geisel contributed more to children’s literature than perhaps any other person (sorry, Franklin W. Dixon). But even a genius of his magnitude doesn’t bat a thousand. How do I know this? Because I recently discovered a list of unproduced Seuss book concepts, ideas that didn’t make the cut.

I think you’ll see why.
