Today I’m starting a new feature on my Blog. On Mondays, besides a regular post, I will discuss a book from my Childhood.
Happy Martin Luther King Day!
The Lorax by Dr. Seuss
Synopsis:
“Unless someone like you…cares a whole awful lot…nothing is going to get better…It’s not.”
Long before saving the earth became a global concern, Dr. Seuss, speaking through his character the Lorax, warned against mindless progress and the danger it posed to the earth’s natural beauty.
About Dr. Seuss:
Dr. Seuss, pseudonym for Theodor Seuss Geisel, is world renowned for his inventiveness and wit. His stories are instantly recognizable by their use of fantastic words, clever rhymes, and unusual creatures-drawn in his distinctive style.
In My Childhood: When I was a kid, my father would read this book over and over again to me. He used funny voices for the characters, and at some point I knew the story by heart. This is my favorite Dr. Seuss book, and defiantly my favorite picture book of all time.
Don’t miss the Movie Version: “Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax” (2012)
I was personally surprised how much I liked it! 4/5 stars!
That’s the Book from my Childhood that I wanted to Share today!
