Celebrate Earth Day with the Lorax!

2021 marks the 50th anniversary of Dr. Seuss’s iconic classic of environmentalism: The Lorax, originally published in 1971, marks its 50th anniversary this year! The Lorax teaches readers that taking care of the environment is a responsibility we all share because unless we care a whole awful lot, it’s not going to get better, it’s not. As new generations begin to learn about environmental protection and conservation, this message becomes even more relevant.

Sharing The Lorax is an excellent way to begin the conversation about protecting and caring for the environment in which we live, because big or small, anyone can help to make a difference.
