Dr. Suess Birthday Celebrated at SummerWood

West Hartford, CT - Children from the Beatrice Fox Auerbach Early Childhood Center, Lollipop Tree Nursery School, Solomon Schechter Day School and Noah's Ark Preschool attended a Dr. Seuss 109th Birthday Celebration at Hoffman SummerWood Community on March 3rd.  The children donned red and white "Cat in the Hat" hats as they enjoyed some Dr. Seuss stories read by SummerWood residents Silvia Pasternak and Kayleen Goldstein. Theodor Seuss Geisel was an American writer, poet and cartoonist who wrote many children's books under the pen name "Dr. Seuss." The children enjoyed time socializing, coloring, and singing.  After cupcakes and popcorn, the children and their families viewed the movie "The Lorax." A large number of new and gently used books were collected to be donated to The Connecticut Children's Medical Center in Hartford.
