The Imaginary Instruments of Dr. Seuss
The collected works of the legendary Dr Seuss (Ted Geisel) played a significant formulating role in my psyche is a child, as it did for much of my generation, as it does for my children to whom I still read these books. Ted taught us the alphabet, anatomy, ethics, empathy, and most importantly, imagination.
For Ted, music was an integral part of life. This is evidenced throughout his books by the presentation of imaginary music often accompanied by illustrations of his imaginary musical instruments.
