In Memory Of Dr. Seuss (Tribute To Theodor Seuss Geisel)


“Theodor Seuss Geisel (“Ted”) was born on March 2, 1904, in Springfield, Massachusetts.”
During the World War 2 time period he wrote approximately 3-5 political cartoons that were very urgent. He submitted them each week to PM Magazine, over a short time period he was considered to be a permanent liberal (open-minded) supplier of the magazine. However, Ted wanted to contribute more to the war than just political cartoons on a permanent bases.
When he made the decision to be more involved in the war, he was 38, already too old to draft (in the war) , he wanted a commission (payment) for naval intelligence.
*Meaning he wanted to give money to the war because he couldn’t give his service. So sort-of-like donating to a charity, except he was donating to War.

Sports Column Baseball


(Main Idea) During this time period of World War 2, there are many conflicts resulting the theory that when loved ones are out at sea, baseball should not be of main importance. It should be the lives of their families out in war, not the swinging of bats and balls, and most importantly the people swinging those bats and balls are WOMEN!!

“Swatting balls while their loved ones were dying on foreign shores?” Baseball has become a disagreement during this War World 2 time period. Women’s baseball has become the main conflict during this time because of the simple fact that their loved ones are out at war and they are more concerned about their next coming baseball game, or season. Sense women aren’t allowed at war most of the women are turning to sports to side their worries and concerns about their family members out at war. But many are complaining about the “Baseball during War conflict”. The baseball officials and many of the fans are complaining about the fact that they should be doing all they can do to help end the war and send the troops home, but the baseball players are doing the exact opposite, turning towards their sports side.

While the president is showing a different side “I honestly think that it would be best for baseball to keep going”. Also stating in a letter, ‘‘Americans ought to have a chance for recreation and for taking their minds off their work even more than before.’’

Political Cartoon



Political Cartoon:







Grinch Or Saint Nick?
As to where Hitler's discrimination against Jews catorgorizes to be like the Grinch to the fellow memebers of the Nazi Party he is simular to St. Nick. Hitler is giving the fellow members of the Nazi Party everything they have ever wanted, wrapping it all in a box and sticking it under their tree.
So is Hitler the Grinch or St. Nick?

Literary Review

Literary Review:
I reviewed the Movie Listings for this month. The most recent movies in the "Cinema World". I reviewed an article once again written by Time Magazine (Our Business Partners) about each of the most popular movie's reviews. In the article the movie "I'll Be Seeing You" was the most reviewed by the audience. Also, recieving 4 1/2 stars for its movie performance.I completely agreed with everything the author wrote.
It was my favorite article, that I've read in a while, because the writer used specific details such as "I'll Be Seeing You, has been about as crowded as the Sunday Market each day it has been open to the public in the cinema."
I also loved that the writer didnt make it too terribly long, but it wasnt too short either.

Dr. Seuss Strikes Yet Again!!


Dr. Seuss Strikes Yet Again!!
Dr. Suess's Political Cartoons have become a very addictive part of PM Magazine. We have recalled many sending in comments to the PM Magazine editorial page. The most recent comment being "Dr. Seuss's Political Cartoons are becoming the best part of every week, and are becoming hooking of my attention. These cartoons are becoming more and more like my situations and basically 'lay out' exactly what I've been thinking of."
These reviews just keep on getting better and better, and so far no bad reflections have been sent in. Dr. Seuss is on a major roll, and we are hoping that he won't get off of it anytime soon.

Dr. Seuss Strikes Yet Again!!
