However you would like to refer to him; Dr. Seuss, Theo LeSieg, Rosetta Stone, or Theodor Seuss Geisel, the beloved author had quite a way with words. This specific quote is overdone in schools and libraries in my opinion, but that didn't stop me from using it for our back to school display: one, because it is a great quote, and two, it is long enough to fill our seemingly fifty-foot long bulletin board (I didn't measure it, this may be a gross under or over estimation... and one day I will figure the panoramic feature on my camera phone to post a more accurate picture). Anyways, I had fun with this one. I cannot take credit for the beautiful rendering of Donald Crews' Schoolbus, which was made in the past by one of our teen employees. But I had loads of fun picking out some of my favorite characters to fly around in hot air balloons. Not pictured are: Rosemary Wells' Yoko, Donald Crews' Peter('s Chair), J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter, Ludwig Bemelmans' Madeline, Don Freeman's Corduroy, and Eric Carle's Friends. Pictured below are E.B. White's/ Garth Williams' Fern and Wilbur from Charlotte's Web, Maurice Sendak's Max and Wild Thing from Where the Wild Things Are, Kevin Henkes' Chrysanthemum, and finally H.A. Rey's Curious George.
