The Lorax
This is a great gift for a young child in your life. Not only does it tell a story that sends an environmental message appropriate to the time, but it IS it's own message. I was thrilled when it arrived and I saw the "made from recycled materials" stamped on the front cover. This book can help you start the story of conservation with your kids.
An absolute MUST for children in this age!
With global warming threats on the rise this book is an absolute must read for all children! For those of us that have a great love for the natural world this book is perfect for teaching that same respect to the next generation..."Unless someone like you cares a whole aweful lot, nothing's going to get better...it's not" The story follows the Onceler as he finds a beautiful land on which he starts a business selling Thneeds. Thneeds are made by chopping down Truffala Trees. The business gets bigger and bigger all the while harming the creatures who inhabited the land...until all the trees are gone. My daughter, my husband and I all LOVE this book...HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

An important message
The
Lorax
is a wonderful commentary on environmental issues and an outstanding book by a very creative and ingenious author. It helps young children understand the importance of actively saving ones environment, while being entertaining at the same time. This is among the best of Dr.
Seuss
's works.
Classic Story Great, but Bad Printing
I love this book. Well, not the exact book I received, but the original "
Lorax
" story. The text of the book I received from Amazon is slightly blurred: some sort of printing error, I guess. And of course, it's nigh on impossible to find an edition of the book with the truly telling line about Lake Erie anymore ("...looking for water that isn't so smeary./I hear things are just as bad up in Lake Erie."). Ah well - it's much better to have this shell-of-a-copy of the tale than none at all!
