SAVE THE TREES

I must admit, until this week, I did not know the story of the Lorax. I bought the book for the artwork, but never read it. 

 After finally hearing the story, I can now see why it's a Dr. Seuss classic. It has such a great message! I am excited to take my kids to see it in the theater.

The Lorax inspired me to make my own Truffula Trees.


 And I first saw the trees!
The Truffula Trees!
The bright-colored tufts of the Truffula Trees!
Mile after mile in the fresh morning breeze.

What I used: yarn, pipe cleaners, and a pom-pom maker (pom-pom makers are inexpensive, but you can make your own by cutting out two identical donut shapes from heavy paper or cardboard.)
