In Japanese this is very easy because most nouns also another meaning as a verb. Examples in English are: leaves / to go away; sprout/ to grow up; blossom / bloom; fall / autumn etc. The knowledge and use of pivot words is paramount in the writing of tanka and very useful in renga, also.
Synopsis. Theodor Seuss Geisel was born on March 2, 1904, in Springfield, Massachusetts. He published his first children's book, And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street, under the name of Dr. Seuss in 1937. Next came a string of best sellers, including The Cat in the Hat and Green Eggs and Ham.
It is especially heartwarming for me as this year also marks 25 years since the publication of the last book of Ted's career, `Oh, the Places You'll Go!'. The publisher says the story captures a classic childhood moment when a brother and sister go to a pet store and are faced with choosing just one animal. It's the first original Seuss story in 25 years. This is a Dr. Seuss that you're going to recognize instantly, said Cathy Goldsmith, a Random House vice president.
