Horton Hears A Who! Page #6

Synopsis: One day, Horton the elephant hears a cry from help coming from a speck of dust. Even though he can't see anyone on the speck, he decides to help it. As it turns out, the speck of dust is home to the Whos, who live in their city of Whoville. Horton agrees to help protect the Whos and their home, but this gives him nothing but torment from his neighbors, who refuse to believe that anything could survive on the speck. Still, Horton stands by the motto that, "After all, a person is a person, no matter how small."

Wow! Easy everyone. Easy!

Oh hi, Vlad.

Well, I shouldn't. But,

Oh man, that is nice touch.

I'm a mess of this.

I got an emotional.

Here come the water slide.

And someone if you want thank

The good people of nool

who put me on a cage

and fork me with sticks

That was me!

My buddy more than

for being the only who stood by me

Well, not right by me

he's hidden in the bushs

Sending me good thoughts.

He's small.

Dood. You're a worrier poet.

And most of all I'd like to thank to

the Mayor of Whoville.

- Who believed me from the beginning.

- On, Horton.

We're going to miss you.

Hm-um, Gee

What are we gonna do without you, Horton?

Ah, don't worry.

I always be around.

- And even as I wonder,

- On~

Keeping in them sight.

You're a candle in the window.

- On a cool dark winter's night.

- Beautiful metaphor.

And I'm getting closer than

I ever thought I might.

Uh, that's a little high funnys.

Baby, I can't fight this feeling any more.

I've forgotten what I started fighting for.

- And if I have to crawl upon the floor.

- Crawl upon the floor.

- Come crashing through your door.

- Crashing through your door.

Baby I can't fight this feeling any more.

I can't fight this feeling any more.

And so all ended well

for those Horton and Whos.

And for all in the jungle, even Kangaroos.

So let that be a lesson to one and to all

A person's a person.

No matter how small.
