Four questions:

1、What’s the main idea and the message or value of the movie that the director is going to convey?

For commercial interests to chop down the trees, destroy the nature environment, that is something must be punished. 

2、Find three points that most touching or what you think is the most important details(conversation、picture or plot).

A/ Once-ler stayed in a small room to regret for what he did. Looking at the stone which wrote UNLESS on it. I was thinking that why he didn't do something with that little seed, the last seed of tree. But we see the punishment. Feel guilty for the whole life.

B/ The power of love. Ted fell in love with Audrey, when he knew that Audrey eager to see a real tree, he tried all his best to look for the tree seed. He did it!

C/ Once-ler's mum didn't think that he will be succeed,  after he really built up his own company, his mum came and persuaded him to cut down all the trees until there was no tree for their product. She left and said, you make me feel disappointed. What a mum she is, real mum or just for cartoon effect? I think this scene may mislead kids.

3、What did you learn from the movie?

Not too much, but I really enjoy those cute, lovely creatures in the cartoon.

4、The background of the story.

A little boy named Ted, who looked for tree seed for his be loved girl. His grandma told him to ask once-ler, Ted found him and got to know the whole story of trees.
