The flick centers on Horton (Jim Carrey) a sweet and imaginative elephant, who hears a faint cry coming from a tiny speck of dust floating through the air. Responsible for that holler is the mayor of Whoville (Steve Carell). He's a Who, who happens to be the only Who concerned about the strange occurrences happening around town (caused by the random movement of the speck). Since only Horton can hear the mayor  because of his super-giant ears, Horton quickly finds out it's an entire city (perhaps even a planet) called Whoville, nestled deep within the speck. And because "a person's a person, no matter how small," this gives Horton the justification for transporting the speck, now resting on a clover, to a safer spot, despite the ridicule and threats from his fellow jungle mates. Meanwhile, the mayor of Whoville (Steve Carell), in constant communication with Horton, is having difficulty convincing his people they might be in danger of being destroyed--or eaten, or blown away into the far reaches of "the universe". The Whos don't grasp the idea that they're not the center of the universe or the concept of bad news. The mayor basically finds himself ostracized by his family and the community as he makes his case. Horton, on the other hand, is catching heat from the self-proclaimed law enforcer of the Jungle of Nool, Kangaroo (Carol Burnett ). She believes imagination is the first step into lawlessness, so she sets out to stop him at all costs. But the mayor shouldn't be worried because Horton's motto--"an elephant's faithful 100 percent"--means the kindly giant will stop at nothing to accomplish his task.

As I watched this entire movie, I kept thinking this movie was made by pro-lifers. I am sure that there were others who thought about other less fortunate groups of people. However, this movie is an excellent way to talk to your kids about the unborn. Kangaroo says to her son Rudy and to Horton - "If you can't see it, hear it, or feel it, it doesn't exist". That is the argument made by pro-choice people all the time and as Horton points out repeatedly, "A person's a person, no matter how small."

Kids will absolutely love Horton Hears a Who! It's colorful, silly and has talking animals - all mainstays to a successful family flick.
