Adapted posthumously from the gouache on board created for the 1959 book, Happy Birthday To You!
Dr. Seuss created three extraordinary books that stand out artistically from his famous color filled pen-and-ink line drawings. The Seven Lady Godivas (1939), McElligot’s Pool (1947), and Happy Birthday To You!(1959) all are comprised of elaborate artworks reminiscent of the “Midnight Paintings” he did privately for his own pleasure. In Happy Birthday To You! perhaps the most elaborate painting appears when the text transports the reader into the “Birthday Flower Jungle,” where they come face-to-face with A Plethora of Flowers.
