March 2 was Read Across America Day, celebrated around Dr. Seuss’ birthday to inspire new generations of lifelong readers. Many of us learned to read using Seuss books. His truthful, succinct rhymes are unforgettable! We think he deserves more than one day of celebration, so for SixContest #47, we asked you to send in your Seussian Sixes. Some of you crafted your own rhymes, others put a modern spin on the Doctor’s renowned classics. Here are some of our favorites!

6) Conflicts spiking: not to my liking! —mguinha

5) Just cook him something else, Sam —@darth (via Twitter)

4) Horton hears fifty shades of Who. —phant

3) Words are wishes like Seussian fishes. —Professor Bird

2) I do obsess, I must confess! —@ashhole1124 (via Twitter)

And our favorite Seusstastic Six is:

1) Grinches and Whos taught me truths. —womanathequill

Congratulations womanathequill, and thanks to everyone who joined in the fun! Whether in our SixContests, on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr or at sixwordmemoirs.com—keep on Sixing!
