We sometimes wish we had one.


So yeah. The Sneetches. This is our favorite book.

We were talking about it last night. We even mentioned our character motivation for the voice of Sylvester McMonkey McBean, who does kind of sound like Morgan Freeman + over-acting Jimmy Stewart + Larry the Cable Guy or maybe Boss Hogg.

But what a sweet story of redemption and morals. There's no such thing as "better" than someone else based on look, or culture, alone. There's no such thing as entitlement. So what if we spent sophomore year of college, um, experimenting and studying the pictures for "hidden meaning" ("Look! What does that candle holder *really* look like?").

Dr. Seuss had game, yo.
