"A classic, but..."
What is up with the music? It was distracting and didn't fit. Otherwise, we love this story!
"A Dr. Suess for all times - especially these times"
I always recoomend Dr Seuss books for young readers. The rhythmic, repetition of rhyme and sounds help students appreciate the sound of written language. The imaginative and poignant stories also help children fall in love with books. The Lorax, in particular, gives an important message for families to talk about. In this age of global climate change and environmental awareness, this book will captivate children and give adults a way to talk about issues that kids are aware of in a way that childen can access.
I am a proud Mexican woman that loves words and reading/listening to books. I also believe that only through knowledge can we achieve progress.
"Classic"
The Lorax is a classic book that my son loves to read over and over. All our children should be as environmentally concious. It always suprises me that there are people who have never read The Lorax and it is wonderful that it is available on audible.
Love Audible..!!

"Best Seuss Book Ever"
I used it as a teacher for my students and since it is hard on my voice to read it to all five of my classes, I could save my voice using audible.com.
The Truffala Trees!
The Lorax
Yes
"Ohhhh... the Lorax, brings on the emotion"
The narration and quality of recording is top notch. Of course the story keeps you on the edge of your seat.
My 6 year old absolutely loves this book, movie and audio book. He can't get enough. I, at first, did not want to buy a short book with my credit but my son was like, "The Lorax! the Lorax!" so I caved in. Now I am quite happy we got it. And we certainly got our money's worth because we listen to it every night!
"Terrible music"
Ted Danson is great on his own, but unfortunately I found the music distracting.
Yes.
Jim Carrey
"OK"
Only if the audible is also interactive, this is important for the target age group.
Wish picture pages would display as this is a children's book.
Picture pages to follow along with the audio
no
"Love Dr. Seuss Books"
Yes. It is a short story that is fun and shares a good message.
No
The music in the background was a little distracting at times. I wish it would have been a little quieter. Overall I really liked the narrator.
"The book was good."
The best thing about the book was how you could see in your mind what he was trying to tell you about.
Dr. Seuss is great for children
Yes
We went to see the movie, my 5 yr old grandaughter says the book was so different than the movie. The book was much shorter then the movie was the movie put extra thing in it, and she was pretty disappointed with the book.
