She often chanted rhymes to her children in order to sooth them to sleep which developed the desire and affection in Geisel to create rhymes</em>.  <em>His early life in Springfield and the memories of his childhood had an influence on his writings which can be observed in his work.&rdquo;</em>   How fondly I remember reading his books to my little one many moons ago - without even bothering to find out who he was.  His stories were delightfully simple and lots of fun.  My little one loved the rhyming and the repetition as all children do.</p>
