    《老雷斯》(TheLorax)最早发表于1971年,书中的主人公老雷斯,爱树如命,本书也被视为人类对生存环境危机的一个寓言:故事描绘了一个叫文斯勒(Once-ler)的人,为了赚钱,将人间仙境变成了一片荒漠的故事。当文斯勒发现一个美丽的乐园,他不听老雷斯的警告,过度利用资源,还所有的树木砍来作无用之物。当生态破坏到了没有任何地方可供动物栖息时,乐园变成了无生气的沙漠。那么,人类是否曾想过当地球资源也被耗尽和污染的情境呢?希望藉此故事来唤醒人类来保护地球吧!
    When Dr. Seussgets serious, you know it must be important. Published in 1971, andperhaps inspired by the "save our planet" mindset of the 1960s, TheLorax is an ecological warning that still rings true today amid thedangers of clear-cutting, pollution, and disregard for the Earth'senvironment. In The Lorax, we find what we've come to expect fromthe illustrious doctor: brilliantly whimsical rhymes, delightfullyoriginal creatures, and weirdly undulating illustrations. But herethere is also something more--a powerful message that Seussimplores both adults and children to heed.
    The now remorseful Once-ler--our faceless, bodilessnarrator--tells the story himself. Long ago this enterprisingvillain chances upon a place filled with wondrous Truffula Trees,Swomee-Swans, Brown Bar-ba- loots, and Humming-Fishes. Bewitched bythe beauty of the Truffula Tree tufts, he greedily chops them downto produce and mass-market Thneeds. ("It's a shirt. It's a sock.It's a glove. It's a hat.") As the trees swiftly disappear and thedenizens leave for greener pastures, the fuzzy yellow Lorax (whospeaks for the trees "for the trees have no tongues") repeatedlywarns the Once-ler, but his words of wisdom are for nothing.Finally the Lorax extricates himself from the scorched earth (bythe seat of his own furry pants), leaving only a rock engraved"UNLESS." Thus, with his own colourful version of a compellingmorality play, Dr. Seuss teaches readers not to fool with MotherNature. But as you might expect from Seuss, all hope is notlost--the Once-ler has saved a single Truffula Tree seed! Our fatenow rests in the hands of a caring child, who becomes our lastchance for a clean, green future. (Ages 4 to 8) --This text refersto an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
