內容簡介

Award-winning author Kathleen Krull zeros in on the formative first 22 years of the life of Ted Geisel. This is the first picture book biography of Dr. Seuss, written especially for his young fans who want to know what made him tick. The animals in the zoo that his father ran and his fondness for drawing them, the injustices he suffered as the child of German immigrants, and his inherent sense of humor all fed into the imagination of this boy. He was a square peg in a round hole until he found that he could make a living doing exactly what he pleased--doodling and writing funny things about the world as he saw it.

The last section of the book outlines the important events in his adult life. In addition to the evocative paintings by Steve Johnson and Lou Fancher, the book is profusely decorated with art from Dr. Seuss books.

Dr. Suess 從小媽媽常跟他說床前故事,玩文字韻律遊戲,也常跟爸爸到動物園去玩。
爸爸期待他讀個名校博士,不過,Dr. Suess卻另有想法,拿著爸爸給他的學費,去歐洲旅遊。

從小不被老師看好,卻在高中時期被某位具慧眼的老師鼓勵,而大放光芒。

22 歲時,Dr. Suess 就很清楚他所熱愛的是什麼。

看著Dr. Suess的故事,知道大師並不是從小就被肯定和鼓勵。不過,生命自有出路。
Dr. Suess生命中二位重要的女人,一位是媽媽,另一位則是他的大學同學後來成為他的太太。
他太太就是鼓勵他,不想唸書,倒不如去歐洲旅遊,見識見識一番的那位同學。

《The Boy on Fairfield Street—How Ted Geisel Grew Up to Become Dr. Suess》裡,這本書描述著名圖畫書作畫家 Dr. Suess的成長故事。其中,我最有共鳴的一句話是:All of his energy would now go into finding ways to make money doing what he loved, not what others might want him to do.
