Dr. Seuss’ narratives employ the use of logical nonsense as he makes the unsaid, said through his fantastical, witty worlds. Seuss’s stories follow a circular pattern: we are presented with a normal world, this normal world is introduced to some form of chaos, and then ends with the world or home restored and brought back to normality.
