Challenge Your Own Limitations!

"Only those who will risk 

going too far 

can possibly find out 

how far one can go" 

~T.S.Eliot

Y E S, I CAN!

When you feel you can't go on,

just say 

"yes I can",

then continue

immediately.

~Kim Franklin-Magana

Get to "IT"!

“Today is your day!…

Your mountain is waiting. So…

get on your way.”  

~Dr. Seuss

Theodor Seuss Geisel ( /ˈɡaɪzəl/; March 2, 1904 – September 24, 1991) was an American writer, poet, and cartoonist most widely known for his children's books written under the pen names Dr. Seuss, Theo LeSieg and, in one case, Rosetta Stone.^[2]

He published 46 children's books, which were often characterized by imaginative characters, rhyme, and frequent use of trisyllabic meter. His most celebrated books include the bestselling Green Eggs and Ham, The Cat in the Hat, One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish, Horton Hatches the Egg, Horton Hears a Who!, and How the Grinch Stole Christmas!. Numerous adaptations of his work have been created, including 11 television specials, four feature films, a Broadway musical and four television series. He won the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award in 1958 for Horton Hatches the Egg and again in 1961 for And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street.

Geisel also worked as an illustrator for advertising campaigns, most notably for Flit and Standard Oil, and as a political cartoonist for PM, a New York City newspaper. During World War II, he worked in an animation department of the U.S Army, where he wrote Design for Death, a film that later won the 1947 Academy Award for Documentary Feature.

Geisel's birthday, March 2, has been adopted as the annual date for National Read Across America Day, an initiative on reading created by the National Education Association.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dr._Seuss

“Paths clear 

for those who know where they’re  going 

and are determined to get there.”

Choose to be...

Wherever you go, whatever you do:

Choose to be kind to those around you.

~Kim Franklin-Magana 

Where do you WANT to go?

There are many choices and directions to take. 

Weigh your options, then decide carefully!

~Kim Franklin-Magana



because...Dr. Seuss said!

“The more that you read, 
the more things you will know. 
The more that you learn, 
the more places you’ll go.”

~Dr. Seuss

If you want to pronounce the name the way his family did, say Zoice, not Soose. Seuss is a Bavarian name, and was his mother’s maiden name: Henrietta Seuss’s parents emigrated from Bavaria (part of modern-day Germany) in the nineteenth century. Seuss was also his middle name.

Leave a trail!

Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path

and leave a trail.
