(Photograph) - Birthday cake and striped hats helped children from Battlefield Primary School in Glasgow celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth on 2 March of children's author Dr Seuss, the pseudonym of Theodore Geisel. The event at Langside Library included Seuss-themed games, readings and quizzes. Between 1937 and 1991, when he died, Dr Seuss published more than 40 books, including early reading primers Green Eggs and Ham, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and his most famous work, The Cat in the Hat.
