Instructor: Thomas Brandner has put on shows at a variety of places with volunteers using the Dr. Seuss story, Sneetches on the Beaches, to teach about discrimination. This includes summer programs for children in SC libraries. Several Dr Seuss stories have limited vocabulary to help teach young children to learn to read. Description: Theodor Seuss Geisel (1904 to 1991) was an American children's author, illustrator, animator, and cartoonist. He is known for his work writing and illustrating more than 60 books under the pen name Dr. Seuss. He wanted to be known as a great artist. He failed. Six hundred million copies of his books being sold did not help. Some of his best-known stories have a moral. In class, a play using a Seuss story, with the help of attendees, will be acted out. Copies of his 83 stories will be available to view. His best stories will be read and discussed in class.
