At the far end of town where the Grickle-grass grows.

As a youngster, I remember the story of The Lorax by Dr Seuss well.

Of course, while my mother was hoping to instill a decent set of values in me, I thought the rhyming was clever and I enjoyed the pictures. (the Once-ler was a spooky character).

Little did I anticipate the significance of its message. and the politics of greed and environmental negligence.

I had the occasion to read it again today and the relevance of it's message has changed ( The Once-ler is STILL a spooky character).

I recommend it to all young and old, cynical and righteous. It's still a good read.
