The Lorax by Dr. Seuss Introduces Children to Environmental Issues - 1 views

  •  
    Thanks for linking this great teaching resource up to the Diigo group Brianna. Another wonderful connection, which also attests to the power of online petitioning, this time from a 4th grade teacher and his class, can be found here: http://www.change.org/petitions/z-let-the-lorax-speak-for-the-trees?utm_medium=email&utm_source=action_alert. Essentially his petition, which was signed by tens of thousands of individuals, helped shape the focus of the upcoming film version of the Lorax from Universal Studios. Isn't this a great?
