The Cat in the Hat Coming to Amarillo

The legendary Dr. Seuss’ most beloved character is making his way around the Texas Panhandle.

I remember every night when I was a kid my and my sister would make my dad read us a Dr. Suess book every night before I could sleep. I could probably recite most of the books to this day if you asked. That is why I was low-key excited a few years ago when PBS came out with the award-winning TV show "The Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About That!"  In true PBS form, it has an educational undertone focusing on science and math for kids in pre-school.

Now the TV Show and Books are coming to life! The Cat in the Hat will make many appearances all over the next week.
