  • The Boy on Fairfield Street: How Ted Geisel Grew Up to Become Dr. Seuss

    AUTHOR: Kathleen Krull, Steve Johnson

    FROM THE PUBLISHER:

    This is the first picture book biography of Dr. Seuss, written especially for his young fans who want to know what made him tick. The animals in the zoo that his father ran and his fondness for drawing them, the injustices he suffered as the child of German immigrants, and his inherent sense of humor all fed into the imagination of this boy.
