Theodore Geisel wrote more than forty books under the pseudonym "Dr. Seuss." His mother's maiden name was "Seuss," which rhymes with "voice" in the native German. Geisel himself originally used the germanic pronunciation, but he later switched to the anglicized "soose," perhaps to rhyme with "Mother Goose."
Geisel published 13 books under the name "Theo. LeSieg," (his given first name, plus his last name backwards), generally for books he wrote but others illustrated. He also published one book under the pen name "Rosetta Stone."
