Series scrutinising the lives of prominent children's authors.

Ted Geisel's careers in advertising and film-making were in no way unsuccessful, but it was as an author and illustrator, working as Dr Seuss, that he achieved worldwide fame, with The Cat in the Hat selling over 400 million copies.
A very private man with an anarchic sense of humour, he experienced private tragedy as well as phenomenal success. Testimony from friends, fans and his widow accompanies rare home-movie footage and extracts from Seuss's work.
Narrated by Connie Booth.
