horton hears a who

I know it's only Tuesday but what the heck! I can't wait for the coming weekend. Hubby and I will be seeing the film Horton Hears A Who! We are so looking forward to watching it after seeing the making of the movie. Released by Warner Brothers, the animated film features the voices of Jim Carrey (Bruce Almighty, Liar Liar) and Steve Carell (Evan Almighty, The 40 Year Old Virgin).


It tells the story of a really cute elephant named Horton who, one day, hears a voice crying out for help. Turns out, the voice comes from a microscopic creature who lives in Who-ville. Apparently, these specks of dust call themselves the Whos. The whole Who-ville asks for Horton's help to protect them from harm. Horton, only hearing the Whos and not being able to see these microscopic creatures, happily agrees to help them, telling himself "A person's a person, no matter how small". Now, isn't that sweet!

Horton Hears A Who is a 1954 book by Dr. Seuss.
