In the interest of commerce, there's a happy ending. The other ending is unacceptable."[On his book You're Only Old Once] Geisel made a point of not beginning to write his stories with a moral in mind, stating that "kids can see a moral coming a mile off."

Geisel evidently enjoyed drawing architecturally elaborate objects, and a number of his motifs are identifiable with structures in his childhood home of Springfield, including examples such as the onion domes of its Main Street and his family's brewery. [94] His endlessly varied but never rectilinear palaces, ramps, platforms, and free-standing stairways are among his most evocative creations.
