Writing Like Suess

As many people know, Dr. Suess wasn't just a successful author of children's books. He was a also a political writer, with many of his stories being allegories. After analyzing the works of Dr. Suess in our English class, my teacher thought it would be a fun project to write our own Dr. Suess styled stories, which we will read to a first grade class in our district. The challenge is to write a story about a social issue, but make it a hidden message inside a children's book. I have decided to write about gay rights. I am very excited to get started on this project and will hopefully share my story once it is finished.
