The description of the Once-Ler and the price of the story

He has green hands. They look like a tree or he has green gloves.

He has yellow eyes. Maybe they are lenses or he is a monster!

He is curious because he looks outside the blinds. He peeks out the shutters like a spy.

  • The price of the story: you must pay 15 cents, a nail, the shell of a snail and put everything in a tin pail at the end of a rope.

If you pay, the Once-Ler tells you the story of real trees.

Hello,

Aujourd’hui, vous avez parlé des différences entre la mère et la grand-mère de Ted puis vous avez imaginé à quoi peut ressembler le Once-Ler.

Granny VS Mum

Contrary to the granny, the mum is very strict and she isn’t funny.

The mum has brown curly hair while the granny has grey curly hair.

Unlike the mother, the granny is old and crazy.

The granny has fake teeth whereas the mother doesn’t.

Who is the Once-Ler?

I believe the Once-Ler is an old wise man with a beard.

I think he lives in the forest in a wooden house, far outside of town.

I think the Lorax and Ted will find the Once-Ler.

  • Opinions:

  • What is she doing?

She is telling a strange and scary story about real trees.

She is singing and dancing the story.

To see a real tree, Ted needs to find the Once-Ler. He needs

  • 15 cents,
  • a nail,
  • the shell of great-great-great grand-father snail.

Hello,

Aujourd’hui, vous avez décrit ce qui se passe dans le 1er extrait de The Lorax.

The real trees and the electronic trees

The document is a video extract from The Lorax.

First, they are eating and talking about trees.

The granny is playing with jelly food, she’s a little crazy.

Then, Ted wants to see a real tree.

But his mother doesn’t like real trees because they are dirty and messy, she is disgusted.

She prefers electronic trees. They can change colours with the seasons (summer, autumn, winter, spring and disco). They are clean and tidy.

Finally, the mum is dancing and Ted is ashamed.
