Description
The Lorax is the original eco warrior, and his message still resonates today in this fable about the dangers of destroying our forests, told in the trademark rhyme of the irrepressible Dr. Seuss.
“Mister! He said with a sawdusty sneeze, I am the Lorax. I speak for the trees.”
The Lorax is a hilarious and timeless story with the trademark humour and silly rhymes of Dr. Seuss. It delivers a powerful ecological message without feeling heavy-handed or overly didactic. The Lorax himself is the original eco warrior, trying to save the Truffula trees from the greedy Once-ler’s axe. Dr. Seuss's blend of zany pictures and unique rhyme, rhythm, and repetition ensures that people of all ages will learn from and love this wonderful book.
As part of a major rebranding programme, HarperCollins has relaunched 17 of Dr. Seuss's best-selling books, including such perennial favourites as The Cat in the Hat, Green Eggs and Ham, and Fox in Socks. In response to consumer demand, the bright new cover designs incorporate much-needed guidance on reading levels, with standard paperbacks divided into three reading strands. These include Blue Back Books for parents to share with young children, Green Back Books for budding readers to tackle on their own, and Yellow Back Books for older, more fluent readers to enjoy. The Lorax belongs to the Yellow Back Book range.

About the Author
Theodor Seuss Geisel – better known to millions of his fans as Dr. Seuss – was born the son of a park superintendent in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904. After studying at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, and later at Oxford University in England, he became a magazine humorist and cartoonist, and an advertising man. He soon turned his many talents to writing children’s books, and his first book – And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street – was published in 1937. His greatest claim to fame was the one and only The Cat in the Hat, published in 1957, the first of a hugely successful range of early learning books known as Beginner Books. In all Dr. Seuss wrote more than 40 children's books during a career that spanned over 50 years, picking up numerous awards, including two Emmy awards for television and a Pulitzer Prize Special Citation along the way.
