Definitely worth a watch.How to Help the Earth-By The Lorax (Step into Reading) So take that as you will.but overall, I found myself liking this a lot more than I expected. I enjoyed it for giving us a deeper-and in my opinion, very powerful-character type: the accidental villain, the everydude who makes a horrible mistake that the environment suffers for.

As far as the frame goes, it's done pretty well. A lot of people have been lamenting the "frame story" this movie adds in, as well as the idea of making the Once-ler a human character. in this case, changes from the book/original TV short.
