The Dr. Seuss National Memorial Sculpture Garden is part of the Springfield Museums, in the city where Theodor Seuss Geisel was born, which appears to have inspired much of his unique, timeless work. Sculptor Lark Grey Dimond-Cates, who is also Geisel's stepdaughter, created the endearing bronze sculptures of Dr. Seuss and his most beloved characters for the Springfield Library & Museums Association, and its many visitors. The characters of Dr. Seuss's imagination come to life here for all visitors.
