Helen Marion Palmer Geisel , known professionally as Helen Palmer, was an American actress and author and the wife of children's book writer Dr. Seuss . Her most well known book is Do You Know What I'm Going To Do Next Saturday?, published in 1963. This book, along with two others — I Was Kissed by a Seal at the Zoo and Why I Built the Boogle House — combined Ms. Palmer's stories with photographs by Lynn Fayman. The photographs in I Was Kissed by a Seal at the Zoo were taken at the San Diego Zoo in Balboa Park, San Diego, California, and featured children from the Francis Parker School in San Diego interacting with the zoo's animals and staff.

Palmer also expanded Dr. Seuss's short story Gustav the Goldfish into the book A Fish Out Of Water, which was illustrated by P.D. Eastman.

Palmer met her future husband at Oxford University. She had a profound influence on his life, including suggesting that he should be an artist rather than a professor. They married in 1926 and had no children together. She committed suicide in 1967, after a series of illnesses spanning 13 years.
