Odds are, you've been saying this children's book author's name wrong since you (or your children) were young. No, it doesn't rhyme with "Zeus." Instead, it rhymes with "voice," making the pronunciation "Soice."
Alexander Liang, a friend of Dr. Seuss, wrote a brief poem to remind people of the correct pronunciation:
You’re wrong as the deuce
And you shouldn’t rejoice
If you’re calling him Seuss.
He pronounces it Soice (or Zoice).
