Dr. Seuss Is Getting a Funko Pop! Doll

Several characters from the world of Dr. Seuss have received the Funko Pop! treatment, including The Grinch, Horton, and Sam I Am. Now Comicbook.com reports that the man behind the whimsical stories is being immortalized as his own cute vinyl figure.
Dr. Seuss (real name: Theodor Seuss Geisel) is one of Funko's first new releases of 2019. The children's book author is depicted in his iconic gray suit and bow tie, with a copy of The Cat in the Hat tucked under his arm. He measures 3.75 inches tall—so he'll stand up to any other full-sized Funko Pop! dolls in your collection.
The Dr. Seuss Pop! is set to ship out some time in February. That means fans can get him in plenty of time to celebrate Dr. Seuss Day, a.k.a. National Read Across America Day, on March 2. Dr. Seuss was born on March 2, 1904, and if he were alive today he'd be turning 115 this year.
You can preorder the figure for $11 from Entertainment Earth. And if you're looking for more ways to honor the writer's legacy, check out these 10 stories behind his most famous books.
