Dr. Seuss - Random Trivia Answers

• A1) Sam. You can also take credit for Sam-I-Am, although the rhyme isn't really part of his name.
  
• A2) Sally. The little boy narrator identifies his sister but never himself.
  
• A3) Stars (on their bellies). The Star-Belly Sneetches air of superiority over the Plain-Belly Sneetches gives Slyvester McMonkey McBean an excellent entrepreneurial opportunity.
  
• A4) Zax. A highway is eventually constructed around the stubborn locals of the prairie of Prax.
  
• A5) They're monochromatic. The first drawings are black and resemble shadows, but others are gray, white, orange, yellow, green, blue, and brown.
  
• A6) 23. In one of his numerous Wizard of Oz sequels, L. Frank Baum's hen Billina dubbed all her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren Dorothy and Daniel (around 400 of them).
  
• A7) Pants. The pale green pants wander around although nobody is wearing them.
  
• A8) Mr. Brown. The brown-hatted, blue-tied man can also imitate a bee, rooster, or owl, a train, a clock, or thunder, and a cork, a shoe, or a horn.
  
• A9) Mount Crumpet. The narrow, nearly two-mile-high peak overlooks Whoville from the north.
  
• A10) Lorax. He succeeds in convincing the capitalist of the long-term folly of his ways, saving the last Truffula tree seed.
  
• A11) Horton. The elephant, who debuted in Horton Hatches the Egg in 1940, rescued tiny Who-ville fourteen years later in Horton Hears a Who!
  
• A12) Theodore LeSieg. This moniker combines his given first name with the reverse of his real last name. For example, In a People House identifiably rhymes like a usual Seuss work, but was illustrated by Roy McKie, and The Tooth Book was drawn by Joe Mathieu. Also note that Dr. Seuss pronounced his last name to rhyme with "voice" not "loose".
