“The more you read, the more things you will know. The more you learn, the more places you’ll go!”

Those famous words were written by the beloved children’s author and illustrator Dr. Seuss. The imaginary worlds he created in his books would transport kids to learn about the environment, accept others who are different and appreciate the importance of education.

Among his many talents, Dr. Seuss was also a gifted fine artist. Throughout his lifetime, he created paintings and sculptures that he stashed away from the public. Now, Dr. Seuss enthusiasts can see a large collection of his artwork on view at the Ann Jackson Gallery in Roswell.
