Kid You'll Move Mountains - Concept Drawing - 679/850

His ability to filter what he learned back to us through his 44 books was a gift that adults and children alike are still unwrapping today.  The most powerful version of this may be his parting sentiments from his last book, Oh, The Places You’ll Go!  

This book was being written at a reflective point in his life when Ted could look back and impart upon future generations the wisdom he had gained. He set out to convey life’s lessons in a concise and digestible manner and, in so doing, struck a chord that had profound results.

“Trust in the journey,” he intimated in the now acclaimed Soar to High Heights artwork.  He tells us there will be dark moments and times of great triumph, but in the end, “Will you succeed?  Yes! You will indeed! (98 and 3/4% guaranteed).”
