Dr. Seuss
The problem with writing a book in verse is, to be successful, it has to sound like you knocked it off on a rainy Friday afternoon. It has to sound easy. When you can do it, it helps tremendously because it's a thing that forces kids to read on. You have this unconsummated feeling if you stop.

Better be wise by the misfortunes of others...Now I've been free...I actually like indoor track and field...Whoever said money can't buy happiness...The thoughtful soul to solitude retires...There are times you can't really see or even feel...
