Navinika Moon was a teen photographer and her aesthetic was the lush forest near her small town of Morganville. She went there almost daily to take pictures of the beautiful trees and their golden leaves. The crisp sound of their crunch beneath her feet sent shivers down her spine. She pulled out her camera and set up her tripod to take time lapse photos of the leaves falling. She grabbed her bag and nestled down against a large cedar tree, she then pulled out her sketchbook and started to sketch what she saw. She observed a small oak tree that she hadn’t noticed before and focused on that. She heard a twig snap and jolted up. She was the only one who came into the forest, or so she thought. She clutched her book and froze, trying to hide from …show more content…

Halloween was coming soon and they were already planning their matching costumes. It started to get late and they decide to head home. Navinika gathered her equipment and walked home with Amber. She bid goodbye to Amber and swiftly fell asleep. She had a vivid dream of technicolor clouds and the colors of the forest bursting with every scarlet and fulvous leave. She saw a figure by the small oak and then suddenly everything in her dream went black. She awoke in a feeling of panic as she looked around her room.

She ran faster than lighting towards the woods. She went to the only logical place, the cedar tree. She wasn’t there, but she saw her tied up to the oak in the distance. She picked up and sharp looking tree branch and used a rock to sharpen it even more. She wove in and out of the trees, avoiding the sight of the attacker. She then rushed towards the stranger and shoved the tree branch into their back, them dropping the blade. Navinika screamed again, but not for fear, for sorrow. “RORY!” she called, tears streaming down her cheeks. Amber quickly untied Navinika and tried to take her back to town, but Navinika pushed her away. “Rory, please, Don’t be dead,” she said, hugging the seemingly lifeless body. “Amber! Why?! I had it under control!” Amber stood there shocked, looked at the tree branch covered in Rory’s blood. She dropped the branch and started

There is a clear image set forth at The Street of the Lifted Lorax, where the story begins. Based on the writer’s use of sensory details and a color pallet, an ominous setting is created. Also, Suess had an unique talent of inventing words that made sense to the audience which contributed to the story and tone, for example, Grickle-grass. “ At the far end of town where the Grickle-grass grows and the wind smells slow-and-sour when it blows and no birds ever sing excepting old crows…” (1). The Truffula tree forest is a contrasting setting with an obvious transition in colors that were chosen to illustrate a once healthy habitat.
