i thought "Are you my mother" was a dr seuss book too. I can't believe how many books he wrote! He was also a political cartoonist and there is a book out featuring and about his cartoons.

I probably would have done much better about eight or nine years ago when I was still reading these to my youngest, but some titles I only recall from MY childhood. It is a wonderful legacy he has left us all.

"Go Dog Go," was also written by P.D. Eastman, I believe. I believe "Red Fish, Blue Fish, One Fish, Two Fish" is entitled "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish."

I think the posthumous ones should be bonus answers: Daisy-Head Mayzie, Hooray for Diffendoofer Day, My Many Colored Days, and Gerald McBoing-Boing.

@madmonkey: It's kind of tricky to include "Gerald McBoing-Boing" since it is more of a posthumous adaptation of a 1951 animated film written by Seuss.

I knew "The 500 Hats of Bartholomew..." but I couldn't for the life of me think of his last name! D: I also spent about two minutes trying to remember Marvin K. Mooney's name (thought it was Martin, Moody, T., etc). I still managed to get 24, though.

Definitely needs to add My Many Colored Days and Hooray for Diffendoofer Day as posthumnous books.

I always thought that "Pontoffel Pock, Where Are You?" was based on a book, but Wikipedia says it was a tv special written by Dr. Suess, not a book. You learn something new every day!

This was a fun quiz, but there could be a few more books included. Maybe as bonus answers? My Many Colored Days was written by Dr. Seuss and illustrated by somebody else. and The Bippolo Seed and Other Lost Stories was written by Dr. Seuss, but published posthumously. I think that The Bippolo Seed should be included because it was written and illustrated by Dr. Seuss.
