The Lorax

recommended age Unlock co-watching from 2

A host named Ms. Linda introduces and reads aloud the Dr. Seuss book 'The Lorax', shown over the book's own illustrations. The Once-ler tells a child how he came to a forest of Truffula trees, chopped them down to manufacture and sell a product called a Thneed, and drove away the Bar-ba-loots, Swomee-Swans and Humming-Fish as pollution spread. The last tree falls, his family leaves, and the factory stands empty beside a pile of rocks marked with one word, 'unless'. At the end the Once-ler hands over the last Truffula seed, and the host invites the viewer to plant and care for one.
