Speaking Openly: Dr Suess and I
HRH Prince Charles
During his early childhood, every effort was made to ensure that England's future king would grow up with a deep understanding of issues in the real world.
Unfortunately, the quality of children's literature was limited in the young prince's formative years, but Theodore Geisel's engaging illustrations and amusing word use have continued to influence Charles' life.
This book is The Prince's own frank discussion on the effect of a breakfast of green ham and eggs; headware for royals; and other ways the book has impacted at Buckingham Palace. |
