Oh, the Thinks You Can Think! |
 |
by Dr. Suess
Children begin with quite vivid imaginations, and education (and the
socializing process) quickly discourage their imaginations in favor of
coloring between the lines. This wonderful book by Dr. Seuss extolls the
creative process and liberates the child to use their imaginations.
"THINK! You can think any THINK that you wish . . . Think of a race on a
horse on a ball with a fish!" It's like getting a license to use your
natural creativity. The book encourages creativity in a variety of
effective ways. As the above quote shows, juxtaposition (combined with
wonderfully funny illustrations) can allow the child to see that words
can be jumbled together in ways to create fantastic images. The book
begins and ends with this method. |
