My story begins with a book by Doc Suess

 who created a way to improve Mother Goose

Start with Q, U or S, Add an A, B or C                                                                    Rhyme up a few words, from a story-reader like me.

 A creation from him called the “Cat in the Hat,”

 Is far more than a story, that’s a matter of fact.

 

For you see, once a man who was named Dr. Suess

showed me that learning was just fun on the loose.

 

And now as "THAT CAT" I spread out the word

that reading Suess Books are words to be heard!
