BATESVILLE, IN — Each year in honor of Dr. Seuss’s birthday on March 2, the Beta Sigma Phi sorority in Batesville presents babies who are born that day with a set of books by the famous author.

Dr. Suess Day is observed on March 2 annually in honor of author Theodor Suess Geisel (1904-1991).

The books were delivered this year by sorority member and Margaret Mary Health nurse, Lori Giltz.

The sorority chapter wants to promote life-long learning and the joy of reading and is another example of the work that Beta Sigma Phi sorority does for the community.
