white birch tree stump \\\"bleeds\\\" a sugary sweet mixture which attracts insects as it\\\'s pumped from roots to the phantom limbs destroyed by the wintry icestorm....eerily colorful crystaline deposits

I would feel sad for this tree, except that it appears to have been diseased (some sort of oozy fungal thing on the right). A picture of an apparently healthy tree stump, maybe even this one from a different perspective, would better represent the theme of the book to me.
Oh you should feel very sad for this tree! That's the point of the story! This was indeed a very healthy tree (until the ice snapped the top off!) decades of years old. The stump does represent the storyline, apparently not to very many critics however. (And not well enough)
Cropping is a bit sketchy. Also, it doesnt really communicate the story of the Lorax to anyone who isnt immediately familiar with it.
"Sketchy" you say, as in bogus? Too tight perhaps, I'll give you that one, but sketchy.... not even close. With a little research (Google?) one could find a possible link (albeit a small one?) to the image with the story. To tell the tale, you're looking to the wrong site. Even the top three vote getters can't communicate the story. Remember that "picture is worth........" thingee?

very cool. if this gets lower rating then some of the other ones i saw, i will be angry. the lorax is my fave book, says my friend. personally one fish, two fish, three fish, blue fish, is mine, but hey. the lorax is my 2. good jobbbbbbbb
And deep in the Grickle-grass, some people say,
You can still see the Lorax standing today.
Taking pictures of fungusy truffula trunks,
That were chopped by the Once-lers Thneed making punks!
Interesting lighting. I always pictured truffula trees as thinner with far fewer rings in them! But I can picture a full forest of these poor trees.
