Overview

Celebrate Earth Day with Dr. Seuss and the Lorax in this classic picture book about protecting the environment

I am the Lorax. I speak for the trees.

Dr. Seuss's beloved story teaches kids to speak up and stand up for those who can't. With a recycling-friendly "Go Green" message, The Lorax allows young readers to experience the beauty of the Truffula Trees and the danger of taking our earth for granted, all in a story that is timely, playful, and hopeful. The book's final pages teach us that just one small seed, or one small child, can make a difference.

Printed on recycled paper, this book is the perfect gift for Earth Day and for any child--or child at heart--who is interested in recycling, advocacy, and the environment, or just loves nature and playing outside.

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not.

"Pretty much all the stuff you need to know is in Dr. Seuss." -President Barack Obama

  • the Lorax teaches the importance of environmental activism

    irene s. - 5 years 8 months ago

    As my previous review disappeared- #BannedBooks this is my favorite Dr. Suess book ever since I was a kid. It really effected me. Amazing how Dr. Suess was able to draw children with a entertaining story while being able delving into environmental activism issues and motivate children in become lifelong advocates. I always remembered one quote that brought meaning to my life, “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, Nothing is going to get better. It's not.” ― Dr. Seuss, The Lorax

  • "I am the Lorax, I speak for the trees."

    This is a keeper. A wonderful book to read to read out loud to little ones.

  • Great read with kids

    Christina A. - 5 years 8 months ago

    I love this book. Its message teaches us that we should preserve our resources and not take the current availability for granted.

  • A childhood favorite.

    Donise C. - 5 years 8 months ago

    I really do not understand how this book can be a banned/controversial book. It is a children's book that talks about what happens when you do not conserve your natural resources. It is a lesson that we all should learn before even more things become extinct then already are or soon will be. "I am the Lorax, I speak for the trees."

  • Read the Lorax!!

    Mandy K. - 5 years 8 months ago

    #BannedBook Not sure why anyone would ban this book; it is my favorite Dr. Suess book! "My name is the Lorax, I speak for the trees." With some real world applications, but the Dr. Suess fantastical treatment, it is a classic. You will love The Lorax, wish for a truffula tree or five, and want to play with the barb-a-loots. :)
