As I was out researching the Read Across America for 2012 event I saw that Lorax is a partner for this year. I know that my kids have enjoyed reading Dr. Seuss and thought what a great way to bring together reading with this new movie.   I have captured the section on NEA's website and posted below.   Also check out the Trailer.  

NEA Partners with the Lorax in 2012

The theme is green for a very special 2012 Read Across America celebration. NEA's Read Across America campaign will showcase the Lorax book as well as NBC/Universal's The Lorax (featuring the voices of Taylor Swift, Zach Efron, Danny Devito and Betty White).  For a sneak peek, here's the latest trailer. The film opens nationwide March 2, 2012 and Universal, Dr. Seuss Enterprises, and Random House have joined NEA's Read Across America, creating new posters and classroom guides for the campaign. Read Across America will also develop new event ideas and materials to help you make this a Seussational celebration.
