Love this book!

My three year old loves this book. He will sit while I read it. He asks why the animals are sad and where they are going. I think it has a wonderful message that is not subtle, but not preachy either. I imagine as time goes by and my child's intellect grows we will have discussions about the deeper meaning of it all. It is a great book.

Comes alive in today's world!

It may be classic Dr. Suess but this book is all about today's world. A shining example of the Dr's finest work and a must have for any child! Ann Clarke, author of People Are So Different! based on tolerance and understanding.

GREAT BOOK!

I love Dr. Seuss so much. This book is a great tool to teach young kids how to take care of the enivorment. My favorite Dr. Seuess book.

A Timeless Message

The message in this book about the impact of our actions on the environment is perhaps even more relevant in today's times than it was when it was written. Certainly, it is more urgent. The story and pictures are presented in a way that even the youngest of children can understand the message. The book is a great way to introduce children to the topic of taking responsibility for our actions, to the planet, and to all creatures. This book should be in every child's library and in every school.

I can't count how many times I've read this to my daughter, and she gets something new out of it each and every time. She asks a lot of questions, so the book has become a springboard for teaching her about caring for the earth and for others. Rather than being a "dark" message, as some other reviews have suggested, I think the book ends with a strong message of hope - the hope contained in the last remaining truffula seed. Even the Once-ler has some redemption in the end, learning that it's never too late to take action to right our wrongs.

"I speak for the trees!"

I loved this book as a child, but I think I enjoy it even more now. While all of Dr. Seuss's stories have good meanings behind them, The Lorax has a very fitting moral for present times. Reading this book helps kids better understand the environmental issues today and what can come from them. Also, this book never gets old. I have probably read it over a hundred times, but I still love it....And who can resist a story that has a brown bar-ba-loot, frisking about in his bar-ba-loot suit?
