Looking for a Dr. Seuss quote to inspire or entertain you? These 30 Dr. Seuss quotes are perfect for graduation, birthdays, or on any occasion when you want to share love, gratitude, inspiration or appreciation!
I always feel like an outsider when I tell people that I rarely read any Dr. Seuss books as a child.
Aside from reading Hop on Pop at my Grandma’s house and watching The Grinch on TV before Christmas every year, I wasn’t well-read in the area of Sneeches, Green Eggs or Wockets.
Now that I’m all grown up (and married to a man who was raised on The Cat in The Hat) I’m fully immersed in all things Seuss, and I love reading so many of his books to my little ones.
It’s hard to choose favorites, but I think our top three Dr. Seuss books are:
3. Dr. Seuss’s ABC
2. Fox in Socks
1. Oh, The Places You’ll Go! {it’s definitely one of our most-read books!}
We also love creative ways to show our appreciation for his books, like this Cat in the Hat Paper Plate Craft and a Dr. Seuss I Spy Activity!
If you love Dr. Seuss, then you need to know that March 2nd is Dr. Seuss’s Birthday! I’m celebrating by sharing just a tiny selection of the wisdom he provided in his many, many books.
