GREEN EGGS & HOMAGE

A friend sent me this wonderful link this morning which I must share with you.
Dylan Hear a Who - Seuss via Zimmerman -Bob Dylan's tribute to Dr.Seuss.

Back in the late 1970's I spent a wonderful week with Dr.Seuss culminating in 5 five minute interviews that I did with him for a popular TVNZ programme of the day called Today at One which was fronted by Sharon Crosbie and screened weekdays at 1.00pm.
Dr.Seuss died in 1991 but his much-loved books contiunue to sell in huge numbers world-wide. Until J.K.Rowling came along I suspect he was the biggest-selling children's author ever.

He is much in the news again at present because it is the 50th anniversary of publication of his perhaps most famous title, "The Cat in the Hat."
