Theodor Geisel, who is the famous Dr. Seuss himself, has always intrigued us with his quirky characters and clever rhymes. But where did Geisel learn to have such remarkable rhyming skills? Well, it is believed that his mother would often chant rhymes to her children, to help soothe them to sleep.

Theodor Geisel first started using "Seuss" as a pseudonym at a University. Seuss was actually his mothers maiden name and also his middle name. Although he was not a doctor, he later added christian louboutin shoes the title "Dr." to Seuss, just to honor cheap louboutins his dad who always wanted Geisel to become a doctor.

Geisel's first book was called, "And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street". It is a fun story about an imaginative little boy who wants to impress his dad with a great story on what he saw coming back home cheap red bottom shoes from school. And so the boy imagines many different scenarios out of just a simple horse and wagon he sees. Where? You guessed it, on Mulberry Street!
