Lorax 是樹木的守護者「樹精」,住在一個長滿Truffula Tree (一種長得像棉花的樹) 的地方,而Once-ler是一個以事業財富為重的商人,因Truffula Tree能生產大家日常不可或缺的Thneeds,被金錢誘惑與蒙蔽的他,不停地砍伐Truffula Tree,直到最後一棵樹被砍下,這個城市早已產生巨大改變,環境已變得不適合人和動物居住並紛紛搬離,Once-ler這時才恍然大悟,回在後悔之中,選擇隱居於這座廢城的衣角,與世隔絕。
而故事最後,原來Once-lar手中還有一棵Truffula Tree的種子,他把它交給了一個男孩,這個城市是否能再恢復以往的生機呢?

CelebrateEarth Day with Dr. Seuss and the Lorax in this classic picture book aboutsustainability and protecting the environment! I am the Lorax. I speak for the trees. Dr. Seuss’s beloved story teaches kids to treat the planet with kindness andstand up and speak up for others. Experience the beauty of the Truffula Treesand the danger of taking our earth for granted 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 forany 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.
The Lorax is the original eco warrior and his message still rings loud 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, that packs a punch with its ecological message without feeling heavy-handed or worthy. The Lorax is the original eco warrior as he tries to save the Truffula trees from the greedy once-ler's axe, and the Dr Seuss blend of zany pictures and unique rhyme, rhythm and repetition mean that all ages will learn from and love this wonderful book.
