The Lorax - Dr. Seuss

“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not,” proclaims The Lorax in this cautionary tale of greed and environmental destruction. The story recounts how the Lorax tries to save the Truffula Forest and its inhabitants from disaster at the hands of an insatiable factory owner. The Lorax’s pleas are ignored and tragedy follows. A Dr. Seuss classic, it also serves as an ecological warning that still rings true today.

I am a 26 year old man who loves Dr. Seuss and got this for myself. The narration is very professional and I love the sound effects that are added into the mix. I don't find much point in the feature that lets you touch a picture and it will say the word, but I guess it would be educational for a child who is learning to read.
