Summary: Even one little voice can tip the scale
Comment: A great book with a lot of positive lessons.

Horton, an elephant, is the only animal who can hear sounds of life on a little speck of dust. Other animals think he is crazy and want to destroy the speck. But Horton sticks up for the inhabitants of the little village on the dust speck. He urges them to scream as loud as possible to prove their existence.

There are a lot of lessons in the story. It teaches kindness and determination; it teaches to care about others, even if they are as small as creatures on a speck of dust. But for me, the most important lesson is that EVEN ONE LITTLE VOICE CAN TIP THE SCALE! Upon Horton's request, all the inhabitants on the dust speck start crying out as loud as they can. But Horton's friends still cannot hear their little voices. The inhabitants of the dust speck were all screaming together ... all but one. Only when that one little voice was added to the "chorus", animals were finally able to hear them crying out. And so is in our lives: each voice, each good deed, counts, and each good deed can finally tip the scale for good in the world. The book teaches that if you want the world to be a better place, as small as you may be (just one person out of millions?), YOUR "VOICE" COUNTS!!!

Summary: This book is a classic, no matter how small.
Comment: This is another book by Dr. Seuss that time and lots of little hands wore out my copy of the book before it could wear out the tale. Horton the Elephant (of egg hatching fame) is back again in this gentle tale. This time the elephant that's faithful one hundred percent is the only one who hears the inhabitants of Who-ville. Which just happens to exist on a speck of dust. Too small to have people? "A person's a person, no matter how small", Horton steadfastly maintains. A great book about having faith and determination. Lots of color pictures and easy to read words make it enjoyable for early readers and non-readers alike. Even older readers won't mind reading this tale again and again.

Rating: 5
Summary: "Big" enough for kids to understand!
Comment: If you've never read this story, you and any children you read it to, are really in for a treat!

This is one of those children's stories that introduce really huge concepts and really important things to think about - wrapped in a wonderful tale.

It's a "big" story - an elephant with a big heart and his willingness to sacrifice for others.

We learn that size of one's body doesn't matter - it's the size of one's heart that really counts.
