This year the book “The Lorax” by Theodor Seuss Geisel,
better known as Dr. Seuss, will take center stage with its message of the
importance of preserving the environment. Global superstars Zac Efron, Taylor
Swift, Betty White, Danny DeVito and Ed Helms lend their vocal talents to Dr.
Seuss’ The Lorax from Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment and are
all co-chairs of this year’s Read Across America, a first for the NEA program.
