I recite the Dr Seuss poem “What Was I Scared Of?”

This poem is from the anthology “The Sneetches and Other Stories.”

The poem itself is the first thing I have any memory of being able to read on my own. That’s probably because the story fascinated me when I was very young, and it was among the many stories my dad would read to me at bedtime. I must have had him read me this one quite a lot.
