THE LORAX Wins the Super Bowl

The Super Bowl movie trailer that most increased book sales may be The Lorax. Dr. Seuss’s 1971 book  rose to to #108 from #287 after the spot aired.

In addition to the original book, Random House has released a series of tie-ins, including a pop-up and two titles in the  “Step into Reading” series.
