With the Laws of Science, You Must Be in Compliance

Couldn't resist trying my hand at a little Dr. Suess style title for this one. I had to in honor of the new PBS series The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That. Based on the Cat in the Hat's Learning Library, each episode will take on a different area of science.

The Cat is voiced by Martin Short. Mercifully, the whole show does not rhyme, just at the end during the wrap up.

Here's the promo clip.


I hope they include some of the adult humor that made the Dr. Suess material so enjoyable...in addition to good science. You can bet I'll be looking for that!

I loved reading the Dr. Seuss stories to my kids. Horton hatching the egg and the Lorax were my 2 most favorite. Such good morals to those stories.

I didn't get much Seuss growing up. But I think it's good to use the franchise to teach kids about science.
