Dr. Suess By: Robert Herman (in the style of Dr. Suess)

Theodore “Ted” Suess Geisel, also known as Dr Suess.

March 2nd, 1904 was not a bore,
 For MOTHER Henrietta and FATHER Theodore. 
Behind closed doors.
 His mom let out a ROAR!
 And dad knew he scored.
 For that was the day,
 They adored their newborn baby.
 A Junior Theodore!
 At school, The most popular!
 Ted and his sister.
 YES SIR! HIS SISTER!
 Ted has a sister.
A sister named Marnie,
 Who has things she likes to do.
 Some evenings after supper,
 Is sit upstairs in her small room And use her Thinker-Upper.
 Ted learned a thing or two,
 From his sister’s thinker-upper.
 Ted thunk-thunk his way to school.
 Ted attended Darkmouth College
 For some learned long-term knowledge.
 And wrote for the Jack O’ Lantern
 And was acknowledged,
 As the first time he ever used Dr. Suess.
 Dr. Suess he is.
 Dr. Sois he was.
 Doctor of rhymes of course he was.
 HE WAS! HE WAS! HE WAS!
 Dr. Suess he was.
 Dr. Sois he is.
 Doctor of twisters of course mister.
 MISTER! HE IS! HE IS! HE IS!

1927 Ted was in heaven and married beloved Helen.
 When Ted found Helen could not bare children.
 He wrote his first piece. A booked called ABC.
 T T t t  What begins with T?
 Ted telling timeless tales to tiny toddlers thirsting tea.
 Thingama-this, Thingama-that.
 He wrote books like Cat in the Hat.
 And Sam I am, from Green Eggs N Ham.
 I do! I like them Sam I am.
 So, I will read them here and there.
 Say! I will read them ANYWHERE!
 He wrote,
 ONE BOOK
TWO BOOKS
READ BOOKS
DREW BOOKS
By the end folks, forty-six, tongue thrilled, fun filled, tongue twister, kid books.
 1991 Ted laid to Rest.
TED
BED
Ted in bed. 
BED
TED
Bed on Ted.

 THE END!
