Weekly Displays: Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss

Announcement in this week's bulletin:  "Happy birthday, Dr. Seuss.  We love you even though we're in high school.  In fact, it is only now that we are older that we can fully appreciate your sophisticated social and political agenda, as evidenced by the awesome Dr. Seuss Geussing Game now in the library.  And there's a PRIZE!"

The misspelling is intentional.  :)

We have a handful of Dr. Seuss books in the Upper School collection, and we borrowed many more from the Lower Schools to fill out the window display.  Our Dr. Seuss Geussing Game was inspired by a post on Buzzfeed about reinterpreted Dr. Seuss book covers.  If our students can name the original book titles (bonus points for NOT peeking at the very-close-by display), they'll win a copy of The Lorax or The Sneetches.  




Lizz found lots of fun Seuss decorations at a party store and our fellow librarians at the Lower School also contributed a Cat in the Hat, so the window display is quite snazzy.



P.S.  I know I've done a lot of birthday displays, but what can I say--I love birthdays and even dead people deserve a good party.
