If the title, alone, does not intrigue you, then you should still read this book anyway. This book is a cute story about a boy who goes to the land where the lorax lives. During his time there you will read about the ways in which the town changes due to the chopping of truffula trees. It is written...
Some of Ms. Pierson's Favorite Books!
Dr. Seuss is always a good read! This book is a great example of seeing things from a different perspective. The Lorax is trying to look out for the animals and trees and protect them, while the Once-ler sees how the business is growing and how many people want their products that they are creating ...

He speaks for the trees! I love this vibrant work by Dr. Seuss. I think most of the charm of this book comes from the usage of made-up words. Seuss's made up characters make children giggle and use their imagination! I could use this book for all kinds of activities! I would love to read this on Ear...

This book is not only perfect for Dr. Seuss Day, but for other lessons as well. This book could be used as a read aloud to introduce a writing prompt. The writing prompt could be a persuasive letter to save the trees in their own town. It gives the students purpose as well as a text to world connect...

I have always had a love for this story and the message Dr. Suess brings us through The Lorax. I will absolutely use this book in my classroom to teach students the importance of taking care of our beautiful planet. I don't think any student is too young to learn about what they can do to help the e...

I love, love, love this book. It was a fun and cute way Dr. Suess had of telling children to save the planet because if they don't it won't be around long if not, also that things don't change unless we step in. We can't rely on someone else to do it. This is great to use for earth day. The students...
