But the story of how he became the author we know and love is far from short and simple. Brian Jay Jones, author of Becoming Dr. Seuss, shares the full story of the man behind the pen name.

Our American Stories tells stories that aren’t being told. Positive stories about generosity and courage, resilience and redemption, faith and love. Stories about the past and present. And stories about ordinary Americans who do extraordinary things each and every day. Stories from our listeners about their lives. And their history. In that pursuit, we hope we’ll be a place where listeners can refresh their spirit, and be inspired by our stories.
