Dr. Seuss's The Lorax Nonfiction series from Random House Books for Young Readers:
What Humming-Fish Wish: How YOU Can Help Protect Sea Creatures and
Green Machines and Other Amazing Eco-Inventions
About the books:
Join the Lorax—Dr. Seuss's beloved icon of environmentalism—as he introduces readers to nine real, incredible eco-inventions and nine endangered sea creatures, and empowers children to think creatively and take simple actions to protect our planet. These rhymed easy-readers, illustrated with bright, cheerful art and full-color photographs, are a perfect choice to nurture a love and respect for the natural world—as well as a love of reading and creative thinking!
I am the Lorax,
and we’re here to celebrate
eco-friendly inventions
that people create.
In Green Machines, the Lorax describes nine kid-friendly inventions from around the world that are helping keep our planet green! From a googly-eyed garbage eating machine to Living Seawalls to edible water "bottles" these amazing inventions will inspire children to think creatively about the world around them and take a fresh look at life's challenges! Green Machines includes brief biographies on the diverse inventors included in the book, plus a brainstorming activity to encourage young readers to think like inventors.
I am the Lorax.
Let’s go to the sea!
I invite you to come
on a journey with me.
In What Humming-Fish Wish, the Lorax explains the threats faced by nine amazing sea creatures, along with the actions people can take to help them survive. Young children will learn how life in the ocean affects us on land (by cleaning the air we breathe and providing food to eat), and how humans—including kids—can make simple changes that will help these amazing species to survive! What Humming-Fish Wish includes suggestions on reducing plastic waste and energy use, conserving water, and tips for organizing a beach cleanup.

Welcome to Grow
$10 Amazon Gift Card Giveaway
hosted by

Momentum and US Pumpkin Distribution, LLC
Fall is quickly approaching, and the family-friendly movie Grow is the perfect way to start the season.I'm eager to see how the tale of pumpkins and sabotage plays out.
About GROW
Welcome to the pumpkin capital of the world, where the pumpkins are epic, the rivalries are fierce, and the competition is anything but garden variety. Dinah Little, a no-nonsense farmer with a tough-as-a-pumpkin exterior, reluctantly takes in her abandoned niece, Charlie. Dinah is not quick to affection, and Charlie is not one for sitting still. So she throws herself into farm life, sleeves rolled up and hands in the dirt.
Then comes the town’s biggest spectacle, the annual pumpkin-growing contest, a Halloween season tradition that brings out wild stunts, eccentric characters, and record-setting drama. But Charlie has something no one else does, a special knack for connecting with plants that quietly reflects her own longing to feel just as seen and loved.
But as both pumpkin and plot thicken, and rival growers pull every trick in the book, will Charlie and Dinah’s unlikely entry stand tall against the fiercest competition the town has ever seen?
As her pumpkin grows bigger, so does her bond with her aunt Dinah. Together they discover that the real prize is not measured in pounds, but in joy, laughter, and family. What begins as a seed blossoms into an exuberant and hilarious story of crazed competition, found family, and love that grows as boundless as the pumpkins themselves.
Please check back after October 15, 2025, for my review.
Wow! I just watched "Grow," and it was fantastic. I love family movies that have you cheering for the good guys. This film really makes you want to get up and dance. Charlie is on a mission to find her mom, and growing the biggest pumpkin might be the key to making it happen. The movie is filled with mystery, life lessons, the importance of taking chances, and the value of hard work.

Versatileer will be matching 50 cents on every dollar won on this giveaway, minimum of $100 including your donation. So if you donate $100, Versatileer will be donating another $50 the the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. If you donate $50, Versatileer would be matching 50% of $50, which is $25, but because your donation is only $50, and the matched amount of 50% is only $25, which is only $75--so that the maximum amount of $100 is to be attained, Versatileer would then donate $50 to cover the minimum donation pledge of $100 to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
This donation is very special to me because it has been a decade since our family lost my cousin Lisa C. to breast cancer in the year 2015. Our family is battling continuing to go through this again this year. The loss is always devastating, and I pledged that before the giveaway, that was dedicated to her in her name, to choose a responsible foundation that chooses to run very responsibly.
I have a favor to ask each and every person. If you could donate to the fine cause of the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, and if you cannot donate today, please donate to the cause of your choice. The whole world has many different causes, each of which are getting way less in donations per year due to a lot of other reasons that are going on in the world these days. Since donations are down, the needs of each cause, including the Breast Cancer Research Foundation have not gone down. Therefore there is a major crisis that is not mentioned much these days, especially by the media. Please remember to donate! Thank you so much!
This giveaway/sweepstakes is in no way endorsed, affiliated, or associated with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, Facebook, Twitter or any other Social Media Networking Site. This Giveaway is valid to United States residents only, Entrants must be 18+ years of age to enter. This giveaway event will end at 11:59 PM EST (10:59 PM CST) 10/31/2025. The winner will have 48 hours to email their information back to versatileer at gmail dot com or a new winner will be drawn, you may want to put this email address as safe as it could go to spam. The Breast Cancer Research Foundation is the beneficiary of this promotion, as the promotion is not endorsed by any not-for-profit organization, as per law. The giveaway is not valid where prohibited! Once a winner is drawn and confirmed (In order to increase the dollar amount to be higher than $10--up to $100, the winner is responsible for forwarding their pledge amount to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation to Versatileer for purposes of verification only), the name will be announced on the Giveaway Tools form. Versatileer will be responsible for sending the winner their prize. Versatileer will be responsible for covering the minimum amount of the pledge of threshold. The threshold is a formula of a minimum amount to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation of $100 AND 50% of the winner's donation amount if the $100 minimum is not met. The Breast Cancer Research Foundation will obtain more than the minimum if the amount of 50% is not reflected by the minimum/maximum pledge rules. $100 minimum is being furnished to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation by the combination of the winner's amount, irregardless of the maximum threshold. Versatileer welcomes your donation to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, as all donations are going to very good cause.
