author’s legacy," and who decided to pull some of his books, as well as his step daughter, who supports the move, still like Suess and like him way more than you ever did, you self-righteous, hypocritical fascist.

Seuss' stepdaughter, Lark Grey Dimond-Cates, told the New York Post on Tuesday there "wasn’t a racist bone in that man’s body," but acknowledged she thought it was a "wise" choice "in this day and age." She said Dr. Seuss Enterprises informed her Monday of the decision.

"He was so acutely aware of the world around him and cared so much,’’ Dimond-Cates said. “I think this is a world that right now is in pain, and we’ve all got to be very gentle and thoughtful and kind with each other."

DO THEY NOT EVER READ THE ENDING???

You do not like them. So you say.
Try them! Try them! And you may.
Try them and you may, I say.

Sam! If you will let me be,
I will try them. You will see.

Say! I like green eggs and ham!
I do! I like them, Sam-I-am!
And I would eat them in a boat.
And I would eat them with a goat...

And I will eat them in the rain.
And in the dark. And on a train.
And in a car. And in a tree.
They are so good, so good, you see!

So I will eat them in a box.
And I will eat them with a fox.
And I will eat them in a house.
And I will eat them with a mouse.
And I will eat them here and there.
Say! I will eat them anywhere!
I do so like
green eggs and ham!
Thank you!
Thank you, Sam-I-am!
