After studying at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, and later at Oxford University in England, he became a magazine humorist and cartoonist, and an advertising man. He soon turned his many talents to writing children's books, and his first book - 'And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street' - was published in 1937. His greatest claim to fame was the one and only 'The Cat in the Hat', published in 1957, the first of a hugely successful range of early learning books. See less
The following is a personality profile of Dr Seuss based on his work.
Dr Seuss is social, unpretentious and can be perceived as shortsighted.
He is assertive, he tends to speak up and take charge of situations, and he is comfortable leading groups. He is respectful of authority as well: he prefers following with tradition in order to maintain a sense of stability. But, Dr Seuss is also laid-back: he appreciates a relaxed pace in life.
More than most people, his choices are driven by a desire for self-expression.
Considers independence to guide a large part of what he does: he likes to set his own goals to decide how to best achieve them. He is also relatively unconcerned with tradition: he cares more about making his own path than following what others have done.
