Dr. Seuss Was Complicated

Theodor Geisel (AKA Dr. Seuss) was a complicated man. He wasn’t overly fond of children, yet wrote endearing children’s books. He wrote one book as an apology to the Japanese people he had maligned. He wrote propaganda during WWII. The beloved Green Eggs and Ham addresses prejudice. There’s a lot to this guy whose legacy lives on.
