UC San Diego plans to sell the 'storybook' home of Dr. Seuss, author Theodor Geisel

in 2018, having greatly enhanced the financial value of her husband’s writings, which include such classics as “The Cat in the Hat,” “How the Grinch Stole Christmas,” and “Green Eggs and Ham.”Theodor Geisel, who went by Ted, died in 1991, more than 40 years after he took up residence in his pink stucco, red-tiled roof hideaway on a grubby slope that spills down to the sea.

“In this storybook citadel above this fairy-tale mountain, the Geisels lived and worked for the rest of their lives,” the Morgans wrote. Helen died in 1967, and Geisel married Audrey the following year.Geisel’s career was beginning to flourish, in part because he had a place where he loved to write, paint and create illustrations.

“It is almost easier to get to Dr. Seuss’ mythical land of Solla Sollew than to Geisel’s real-life lair on Mt. Soledad.
