It continues to amaze me...the power and imagination of Dr. Seuss. With the students in the afterschool program at the JCC in Berkeley, we are creating 3 plays that all have something to do with the themes of leadership and community in Yertle the Turtle. Now, I've known for a long time that Horton Hears A Who should be required reading for all teachers and activists, but this book...wow! I wonder how we can get it read at the Democratic National Convention. Maybe this guy Chuck Wagner is available for a public reading.
