Now is a great time to revisit this classic Dr. Seuss story about a Lorax that "speaks for the trees" - warning against mindless "progress" and greedy consumerism. First published in 1971, the message of this picture book is still relevant, yet it is still typical Seuss fare - fun to read aloud and not preachy. Universal Pictures plans to release an animated movie based on this story in early March so stop by your library to check it out; it's on the shelf at
E SEU.
