This powerful, classic fable from Dr. Seuss deftly sums up the cost of human progress to the natural environment, including the destruction of animals, trees, and fresh water and air. A glimmer of hope is left at the end, however: “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” Related lesson plans and limited Spanish copies available.
