The lesson hidden within this story is to be careful who you invite in to your life, they may cause big problems. Dr. Seuss is a very unique author; he successfully wrote children’s books with lessons within them that most adults…

I was never the outstanding reader of the class as a child but when you make it into a competition with a prize at the end who isn’t motivated to read? Grade school made reading fun and exciting and motivated you with competitions. When you move on to high school you see a giant decrease in that motivation as they pile the readings higher and restrict your reading choices to a slight list. As you progress to college there is absolutely no choice on readings and a very short time frame on when…

change your fate. Some others believe that your fate can only be changed up until the damage is done and not after the damage is done, there is no turning back. In these three pieces of literature by Dr. Seuss, Charles Dickens and Edgar Allan Poe, this mixed emotions are shown. In the Lorax by Dr. Seuss, we…

words, men try to be the wealthiest person because money means power, and being on top is what every man wants. There is nothing wrong with being wealthy, the problem is that most of the time wealth comes with a price.

The Once-ler became greedy causing animals to leave the land and cause the extinction of the truffula trees.…

experience with being a reader began with a Dr. Seuss book when I was a very young boy, a colorful book with walking-talking cats and dogs, treehouses, and a party.

Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax is a story about redeeming oneself and becoming a hero after eradicating the environment. Considering the title of the text, it would seem obvious that the hero of this story would be none other than the Lorax, who revolts against the Once-ler in hopes of saving the environment. However, in order to determine who the hero of The Lorax is, the concept of a hero must be defined. A hero is someone that attempts to fix whatever may be wrong in the world, no matter what they have…

According to my parents, I learned to read and make up my own stories somewhere around the age of four or five. I recall not enjoying the outside and bugs very much, and instead I begin learning to create my world in books. I credit my early reading of Dr. Seuss Books, and Nancy Drew with my love to write. At the age of six, I was very active in church. I was the youngest Jr. Superintendent in the district, which consisted of approximately twenty churches. As the Jr. Superintendent, I had to…

able to see what some of them thought the main ideas were from the stories and other students to be able to partake in what they thought the supporting details were. I felt like it was a good week of when I did my lesson, because not only was it, Dr. Seuss week, but it fell on a Wednesday for me to do my lesson and the book, I read the children was Wacky Wednesday and they…
