Category:Seuss Landing

Seuss Landing is an area at Islands of Adventure. It is themed to the characters featured in numerous books authored and illustrated by Theodor Geisel, better known by his pen name of Dr. Seuss. The area opened with the rest of the park on May 28, 1999, though new attractions have been added over time.

Background
Seuss Landing features a variety of decorations that are whimsy, wacky, and colorful. Characters and scenery are also made to look as if guests have stepped into a picture book. For instance, characters that would otherwise feature fur such as The Cat in the Hat instead have lines drawn on their body to represent different-colored fur.

One of the most notable features of the island is the lack of straight lines in the scenery, as all of Seuss' illustrations featured an art style that did not feature any straight lines. Park officials even went as far as planting palm trees bent by Hurricane Andrew in the area to continue the illusion.

Trivia
All attractions, characters, gift shops, and restaurants located in this area are listed here:
 * Dr. Seuss makes a cameo in this island. A caricature of himself in his own art style can be found as a statue near the Mulberry Street Stores Trading Co shop. Behind the police officer riding on a bike is a parade car with three men. The man on the left is Dr. Seuss.
 * From 2002 to 2003, Halloween Horror Nights was held in Islands of Adventure. However, Seuss Landing was renamed to Boo-ville and notably had no scareactors, due to Audrey Geisel threatening to end relations with Universal if they got rid of the family-friendly theme of her late husband's characters.
