By Rosetta Stone

Rosetta Stone, otherwise known as Theodor Geisel, and most
commonly known as Dr. Seuss, wrote this humorous tale of cause and effect.
One fine summer morning, a little bug sneezed. Because of that sneeze, a little seed
dropped. On and on the story goes, with
each action causing an even greater effect, eventually leading to the sinking
of a boat, and an interrupted circus parade.
The ending is left open, with the assumption that the consequences are
still escalating to this day.
All of our actions have consequences – even the actions of
someone small and seemingly insignificant.
This book offers food for thought for readers of all ages. Our choices affect not only ourselves, but
have the potential to snowball with far-reaching consequences.
