When we've read it, I've asked Duncan what HE would do.

He said that he'd tell me, OF COURSE, because he knows I would laugh at all
the funny things that happened (and then go check on the fish!). <BWG>

Oh----and if you're ever in Springfield, MA, you SHOULD go to the little
museum there. Geisel's daughter is a bronze sculptor and has sculpted all of the
characters from his books. They are planted all over the grounds. We have
photos of me and Duncan with the HUGE book of _Oh! The Places You Will Go_, The
Grinch, The Lorax----everybody! Really Cool!

Why didn't you say that before! We could have our next New England
Unschoolers group there! (It's close to me--muuuhhhhaaaaaaa.)

Hi.

Can anyone resend the url for the globe article about Dr. Seuss that was sent out a few days ago? I'd appreciate it, as my daughter is writing a kids' book about him. We deleted the message by mistake!

Thanks!
