Geocache Description:

This cache is the second in the Kiddie Lit series (Kiddie Lit being the unofficial term for "children's literature" for college courses in that subject taken by teachers-to-be-- I know, my wife is a retired teacher!)

This series has been designed to be child-oriented. The caches are all in easily-accessible locations and are large enough that most any child should be able to find them (with occasional help from an adult, of course). Each cache is medium in size and contains a log and pen or pencil and appropriate child-oriented swag.

Dr. Seuss (born as Theodore Seuss Geisel) died on September 24, 1991, but to this day remains one of America's favorite authors of children's stories! [He also wrote some kiddie lit under the name Theo LeSieg (which is "Geisel" spelled backwards).]

Wikipedia says, "Geisel published 46 children's books, which were often characterized by imaginative characters, rhyme, and frequent use of anapestic meter. He was a perfectionist in his work and he would sometimes spend up to a year on a book. It was not uncommon for him to throw out 95% of his material until he settled on a theme for his book. For a writer he was unusual in that he preferred to only be paid after he finished his work rather than in advance."

This cache is named for the persistent salesman in the famous "Green Eggs and Ham."

Being a sales trainer myself, I have actually used this story in my seminars to teach key skills in salesmanship. If you are in sales, or know someone who is, you may want to re-read this great story with adult glasses on and see if you can learn some valuable lessons!
