Gorney wrote the article with a style and word choice that allowed readers to relate to Geisel because when she quotes him saying, "'So i drew him as King What-ever-his-name was, King' (scribble) 'of the Pond' (scribble)" (167). Adding "scribble" in between what Geisel said shows the work of the children's author, how he didn't just all of a sudden come up with brilliant ideas. It took work, some "scribbles" along the way. This specific word made the story more personable to readers because many people struggle with ideas and end up scribbling, which occasionally leads to a mastered idea. Gorney establishes part of her unique writing style because most quotes are just quotes, without additions of the reporter that more fully describe what the person is explaining.

Famous people are still human, and profiles can remind us of that:

"There is not a single children's book author in America who has matched the impact, popularity and international fame of the spare, bearded California prodigy who signs his books Dr. Seuss." (168) I found this statment quite intriguein I mean of course there are millions of books across the nation that are read by children. Though I must say his books are good. I liked reading the article and his views on his work and how he matches the colored pencils. He is an author that knows what he wants. An in the readings he is quoted the most sophisticated. I found it intersting to see that his heart was into making the aspects of the childrens books and the preciseness of his work was dedication.
Though in the article the relations of sturggles are also quoted he strives for perfection. "He trys to treat the child as an equal." The article acknowledges his work and his reasoning behind his books that benefit the young readers that are targeted as something they can pick up ad enjoy.

"If one goal of the feature writer is to find the human being behind the celebrity, another is to discover what is worth celebrating in the life of uncommonly common men and women."
