Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

dr-seuss-tee

I hadn’t planned a post today or about Dr. Seuss but yesterday I posted a poem on my Facebook page that I wrote to celebrate his birthday.  The poem was promptly stolen and used elsewhere as their own work and while I won’t point fingers here, because that’s not me, I wanted to share it with you.  I’m also going to share some of my favourite posted treats made by some pretty amazing people.

First the poem:

Today's the day we celebrate,
A cat, his hat and a man so great.
He gave us some strange fish and introduced the Who's,
An elephant named Horton plus Thing one and Thing Two.
But for me it's The Lorax and The Grinch that I could watch everyday,
So I thank you Dr Seuss on this your birthday!

and now on to the treats.  Please visit their facebook pages and share them some love,

  2. Aww Karen...I'm so sorry to hear that your poem was stolen! That's so sad (and terrible). It was a lovely tribute to Dr. Seuss! Thank-you for including my cookies in your blog post! So sweet of you! Such a lovely way to celebrate the birthday of such an amazing author who has touched all of our lives. Bravo! Have a "sweet" day!
