I was really surprised that THE LORAX is a banned book. I used to read this story all the time as a child as well as the other books that Dr. Seuss wrote. The reason for being banned is because of the environmental issues that it addresses within the story. It shows the destruction of the forest because of industrialism.
In my opinion, THE LORAX should not be a banned book. It shows what happens when people stop caring about the world and use its resources strictly for profit. I think those values that it teaches are great for kids to hear.
THE LORAX is a story that should be read by all ages because of the great message it sends about deforestation. It may be banned because it might show industrialism and progress in a bad light, but it does not; it shows the results of people taking advantage of the environment for personal gain and with indifference.
