What a great analogy for kids! I love Dr. Seuss, have every book he's ever written I think. I grew up with him and so did my kids. We had a neighbor who had small children the same age as ours who didn't approve of kids reading Dr. Seuss. They said that they'd never learn REAL words. Nonsense! I feel sorry for kids denied the fun of his stories. I didn't feel like a bad parent for reading them to my kids. He was also very clever at approaching social issues that children could learn from. One of my favorites was "The Sneetches".
"Now, the Star-Belly Sneetches Had bellies with stars. The Plain-Belly Sneetches Had none upon thars." A great lesson in pride and envy. Now I feel like reading a few Seussian stories! |
