Prologue
You may or may not have heard of me, but my name is Chance Turner. Everyone calls me Once-ler or Oncie and that may very well be the name that you are have heard. I was one a very successful businessman. I sold a product called The Thneed. It could do the job of thousands and it was very popular. There was a downside though. It was made from the tuffs of the Truffula trees. I stopped mass producing Thneeds and an working on correcting my mistake that nearly destroyed an ecosystem. I am replanting the Truffula trees. There are only three left.
What you are about to read is the story of my life. Through my first five years to the present. I hope you enjoy this and learn from my mistakes. Now on with the story.
