When people think of Dr. Seuss, they think; “Oh, the cat in the spontaneous black and white hat” or the author who wrote books about moral values ​​and created works of art that expressed politics. Dr. Seuss wrote children's books not only to open a child's imagination to a fantasy world full of new words, creatures, and experiences, but also to eye-opening issues. He promoted the importance of racial equality and other political issues as well as the enduring hardships of life through his literature. Books like The Sneetches, The Lorax, I Had a Hard Time Getting to Solla Sollew, and Oh, The Places You'll Go! , are just a few of the many books written by Dr. Seuss, but each of these books contained a hidden moral message that could change the way people think. Seuss incorporated valuable lessons about everyday struggles into his books and, in doing so, allowed readers to think and reevaluate their beliefs and make better choices about their lives. When it comes to taking risks, people tend to view them as imprudent, complicated, and out of their comfort zone. As a result, they become scared and mistakenly believe that they are incapable of seizing new opportunities, which could set them up for success. Such beliefs are what push people to make poor choices and therefore prevent them from living a life worth living. Dr. Seuss, "Oh, the Places You'll Go" was intended to express the variety of amazing places life has to offer, but it's all up to the reader where he decides to go, "You've got brains in your head. You've got feet in your shoes. You can guide yourself in any direction you choose (…). And you are the person who will decide where to go.”(Places). . middle of paper......s? Just as the Once-ler and his family value financial success to achieve happiness, the same is true for contemporary society and financial possessions rather than a state of mind. According to Rider “Despite growing material wealth, Americans are no longer happy” (Rider). True happiness comes from yourself and your vision of life. In the book “The Lorax” Dr. Seuss not only spread an important message about caring for the planet, but also helped his readers become aware that wealth does not lead to happiness. Each person has their own perspective on what it means to be happier and live a happier life, but it is important to realize that happiness comes from within and not from something you obtain.(conclusion)
