Note: Our Roving Reporter went to Harper Library in Southport on Monday, March 2 to enjoy a visit and Story Time with the Cat in the Hat. Here’s her review of the event:
“A person’s a person, no matter how small”
This Dr. Seuss quote is one folks may recall
Today, some small people, from infants to tots
Enjoyed hearing stories that brought smiles! Lots!
For who but the Cat in the Hat would appear
At Harper Library, an icon so dear
To read to the children, some fourteen or more
Excited to show off their esprit de corps
For Dr. Seuss’ birthday’s a day when we read
To honor a man who was beloved indeed
By boomers, GenXers, GenY, and now those
Who’ve barely emerged from their swaddling clothes
Our libraries offer great content like this
It’s truly a shame anybody would miss
A chance to hear Seuss from the Cat in the Hat
In such an inviting and fun habitat
Where kids’ sense of wonder continues non-stop
From “Green Eggs and Ham”, “Fox in Socks”, “Hop on Pop”
There’s nothing like seeing and hearing the joy
Of library programs put on by FOLSOI!
