The business that oversees the work of children’s writer Dr. Seuss will stop publishing six of his books. In a statement Dr. Seuss Enterprises gave this reason, “These books portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong.” Canceling publication of these books, the statement said, is part of a bigger plan to make sure all of Dr. Seuss Enterprises’ books and products represent and support all communities and families. One of the books being withdrawn is “And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street.” In it, an Asian person is drawn wearing a pointed hat, holding chopsticks and eating from a bowl. In the book “If I Ran the Zoo” a drawing has two bare-footed African men wearing what appear to be grass skirts with their hair tied above their heads. The other books that will no longer be published are “McElligot’s Pool,” “On Beyond Zebra!,” “Scrambled Eggs Super!,” and “The Cat’s Quizzer.” The company said it reached the decision last year after working with a group of experts.
