The Lorax (Dr Seuss Nursery)
note: Book cover of board book with slightly faded portions and some dents and slight tears. See image.
A new edition of the classic story from Dr Seuss's much loved The Lorax. Ideal for children learning to read on their own. "Mister!" he said with a sawdusty sneeze, "I am the Lorax. I speak for the trees." In this haunting fable about the dangers of destroying our forests and woodlands, the long-suffering Lorax struggles to save all the Truffula Trees from the wicked Once-ler's axe. A hilarious story with typical zany humour and silly rhymes, that packs a punch with its ecological message without feeling heavy-handed or worthy.
"UNLESS someone like you...cares a whole awful lot...nothing is going to get better...It's not." Long before saving the earth became a global concern, Dr. Seuss, speaking through his character the Lorax, warned against mindless progress and the danger it posed to the earth's natural beauty. His classic cautionary tale is now available in an irresistible mini-edition, perfect for backpack or briefcase, for Arbor Day, Earth Day, and every day. - Good Reads
