Ultimate Tuesday Dr. Seuss 107th Birthday Celebration

Come celebrate Dr. Seuss's 107th Birthday with Secret Garden Bookstore on Ultimate Tuesday! The celebration takes place Tuesday, March 29, from 7-7:30 p.m. March’s Ultimate Tuesday breaks out of our usual reader-is-creator mold. This month’s visitor is a neighborhood celebrity reader, who shall remain a mystery!

Brilliant, playful, and always respectful of children, Dr. Seuss charmed his way into the consciousness of four generations of youngsters and parents. In the process, he helped kids learn to read. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1984 and three Academy Awards, Seuss was the author and illustrator of 44 children's books, some of which have been made into audiocassettes, animated television specials, and videos for children of all ages. Even after his death in 1991, Dr. Seuss continues to be the best-selling author of children's books in the world.

Come for the Seuss stories. Come for the free Seuss prizes! Free. For more information visit Secret Garden's webpage.
