Dr. Seuss in Mikes

On Dr. Seuss birthday (March the 2nd) we met with the readers of  Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. School Complex / Atlantic City / New Jersey.
Dr. Seuss for the Americans is like Benedek Elek and  Ion Creangă for us.
He wrote 44 books for children.
For his memory the National Education Association created the  Read Across America, which  is an annual reading motivation and awareness program in USA, that calls every child in every community to celebrate reading on March 2.
Our program was very interesting.
  First the students from  Atlantic City presented ''The Cat in the Hat" , the most important book of  Dr. Seuss. 
Then we were discussing about our schools, customs and  famous Afro-Americans.
The great surprise it was offered to us by  Mr. Lorenzo T. Langford, the mayor of Atlantic City, who not only greeted us, but he kindly answered to all our questions.
In this condition the time flew by. The Mikes students didn't read. No problem, we shall do next time!
Special thanks to Goga Enikő, our English teacher, for cooperation.
