(Batesville, IN) – Beta Sigma Phi sorority’s Batesville chapter continued the tradition of presenting a set of Dr. Seuss books to any family whose baby was born at Margaret Mary Health (MMH) on March 2.
The late Theodor Seuss Geisel, who wrote and illustrated books under the pen name “Dr. Seuss,” was born on March 2, 1904.
Beta Sigma Phi member and MMH nurse Lori Giltz presented books and a stuffed Cat in the Hat to Daniel and Nikayla Dierckman of Greensburg, the parents of a baby boy born at the hospital on March 2.
Sorority members say the idea behind this annual outreach is to spread the joy of reading and instill lifelong learning in children.
