Dawn Armstrong of the Lake Tahoe Humane Society and SPCA put together an ‘animal story starter,’ a list of children’s books that “nurture compassion, responsibility and respect.”  Hey, Little Ant is honored to be on the list with so many other important books.

Where would any of us be, for example, without Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax?  In honor of Dawn’s fine work, let us greet the New Year with two favorite quotes from The Lorax.

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not. –Dr. Seuss, The Lorax

I speak for the trees, for the trees have no tongues. –Dr. Seuss, The Lorax
