MP3
Paul Czekaj (a viewer of this site) has written the song "Reading's Lots of Fun!" using Dr. Seuss' books.  His daughter's elementary school has been using the song for the last 10 years (since 2000).  Paul sent me his CD and it's a really fun song.  Go to Amazon.com and you can hear part of the song.
