Dr. Seuss Enterprises Will Shelve 6 Books, Citing 'Hurtful' Portrayals

Curated by Adrian Ruiz

“Dr. Seuss Enterprises will cease publishing six of the author’s books — including And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street and If I Ran the Zoo — saying they “portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong.” The books have been criticized for how they depict Asian and Black people. The company says the decision was made last year, in an effort to support “all children and families with messages of hope, inspiration, inclusion, and friendship.””
