Free Dr. Seuss Coloring Pages

Dr. Seuss Coloring Pages

Dr. Seuss books are classics, he wrote and illustrated so many wonderful books that it is difficult for me to pick my favorite. However, if I had to choose I would say Cat in the Hat, Green Eggs and Ham, How the Grinch Stole Christmas and Horton Hears a Who are my favorites. I am such a fan of Dr. Seuss and I am also happy to recommend websites that I feel have good free Dr. Seuss coloring pages.

Dr. Seuss was born on March 2, 1904 and passed away on September 24, 1991, he was such a successful writer and cartoonist, his books are known and well loved all over the world. Many of his books have been made into animated shows and also movies.

Dr. Seuss' trademark or what he is known for best is his use of rhyme, kids just love rhyming and the books are so predictable and fun that children just love reading them. I will never forget one of the years I taught second grade and that year my class absolutely adored the Cat in the Hat, the kids were constantly asking me to read it and we read it over and over again. Once I read it two or three times, they knew the pattern and were reading along with me, by the time the end of the year rolled around I did not even read the book, I held up the book, used my pointer finger and pointed to each word and the kids read the book to me. However, that following summer I needed a big long break from Cat in the Hat.
