Dr. Seuss has always been an inspiring and popular children's book writer and I thought I would comment about one of his books that I saw in a different light: The Foot Book. I'm sure everyone is familiar with the "wet foot, dry foot, high foot, low foot" ryhmes, but I thought about what meaning this would have in everyday life. All the different kinds of "feet you meet" is a very legitament point to send to children.
If you can be accepting of everyone's feet, certainly we should be accepting to everyone in general. The sick feet, quick feet, and red feet explains that everyone is different and we can have our flaws (being sickly). This may apply to something such as peoples race, skinny or bigger people, or even animals. If children have an understanding of difference, they will probably tend to be more open to the world around them.
