Didn't get a chance to celebrate what would have been Dr. Seuss' 105th Birthday last week? There's still a way to pay tribute to your favorite children's book author at the Loews Portofino Hotel in Orlando, Florida.

The hotel unveiled its Dr. Seuss Suites over the summer which come with a king bedroom for Mom and Pop and a kids' room with two twin beds and plenty of Dr. Seuss decor. And recently, the hotel used the suites to host a Read Across America event with children from a local elementary school (pictured above.)

Now the hotel has created a Dr. Seuss package which includes a three-night stay, a breakfast of green eggs and ham in Trattoria del Porto for two daily, a special children's welcome amenity, a set of four Dr. Seuss books, and a set of four mini Dr. Seuss themed plush characters plus a souvenir Cat in the Hat photo frame.

And since you're in Orlando, the Dr. Seuss adventure can continue outside the hotel at the Seuss Landing at Islands of Adventure theme park with rides and attractions based off of Dr. Seuss stories and characters, like Cat in the Hat. Also, the park is extremely true to Dr. Seuss' drawings.

Dr. Seuss never drew straight lines in his illustrations. Everything was curved, slanted or "wonky." Thus, there are no straight lines in Seuss Landing.

Thankfully, the hotel rooms have standard twin beds for the kiddies although some of the furniture is a little curvy. Mom and Pop also get a respite from Dr. Seuss in their bedrooms which are normal guestrooms.

The package begins at $619 a night and can be booked online at www.universalorlando.com/hotels or by calling 1-800-BE A STAR.
