At the same time, Horton the elephant, the jungle 's eccentric nature teacher, takes a dip in the pool. The dust speck floats past him in the air, and he hears a tiny yelp coming from it. Believing that an entire society of microscopic creatures are living on that speck, he gives chase to it before placing it on top of a clover. Horton finds out the speck harbors the city of Whoville and its inhabitants, the Whos, led by Mayor Ned McDodd. He has a wife, Sally, 96 daughters ( whose names all begin with the letter H ), and one teenage son named JoJo. Despite being the oldest and next in line for the mayoral position, JoJo does n't want to be the next mayor, and because he 's so scared of disappointing his father, never talks. Once Horton begins carrying the speck with him, the city starts experiencing strange phenomena ( earthquakes and changes in the weather ), and the Mayor finds his attempts to caution Whoville challenged by the Town Council, led by the opportunistic yet condescending Chairman. After he makes contact with Horton, the Mayor finds out from Dr. Mary Lou LaRue that Whoville will be destroyed if Horton does not find a `` safer, more stable home ''. Horton resolves ( with the help of his best friend Morton the mouse ) to place the speck atop Mt. Nool, the safest place in the jungle. The head of the jungle, Jane Kangaroo, disbelieving Horton 's beliefs and resenting him for overshadowing her authority, attempts several times to demand that Horton give up the speck, but Horton ignores her demands. Also taking force toward Horton are the Wickersham Brothers, a group of monkeys who love making misery. Eventually, the Kangaroo enlists a vulture named Vlad Vladikoff to get rid of the speck by force. After a few failed attempts, Vlad manages to steal the clover away from Horton and drops it into a massive field of identical pink clovers, causing an apocalyptic tremor in Whoville. After unsuccessfully picking nearly three million clovers, Horton eventually recovers the clover ( exactly the 3,000,000 th clover ). The Kangaroo eventually finds out, thanks to Mrs. Quilligan, that Horton still has the speck, and decides to rally the jungle community into fighting Horton, saying that Horton 's goal will lead to anarchy. Upon cornering him, the Kangaroo offers Horton an escape from punishment by renouncing Whoville 's existence. Despite Horton 's heartfelt speech when he refuses, the Kangaroo orders the animals to rope and cage him, and to have the speck and the Whos destroyed in a pot of boiling beezlenut oil. The Mayor enlists all of his people to make noise by shouting `` We are here ! '', as well as playing a variety of instruments, so the animals may hear them, assisted by JoJo 's `` Symphonophone '', an invention which creates a huge musical contribution ( which reveals that JoJo 's `` true '' passion is music ), but still fails to penetrate the surface of the speck. As Horton lies beaten and captured, the Kangaroo easily takes the clover, and drops it. Meanwhile, JoJo grabs the horn used to project Horton 's voice, runs up the highest tower and screams `` YOPP ! '', breaking through the sound barrier just seconds before the speck hits the oil. The Kangaroo 's son, Rudy grabs the clover and returns it to Horton. The animals finally hear the Whos, realizing the truth about the clover, and isolate the Kangaroo for tricking them. While being praised for his integrity by his neighbors, Horton even forgives the devastated Kangaroo, and she befriends him with a makeshift umbrella for Whoville. Here, the people of Whoville and the animals of Nool gather in song and recite the chorus from `` Ca n't Fight This Feeling ''. The film ends with the narrator revealing that the Jungle of Nool, or rather Earth, is just one speck, like Whoville, among numerous others, floating in outer space.

Amy Poehler as Sally O'Malley, Mayor McDodd 's wife and mother to Jojo and her 96 daughters. Jaime Pressly as Mrs. Quilligan, a bird and Jessica 's mother.

Bill Farmer as Willie, a bear and Tommy 's dad. Heather Goldenhersh as Who Girl Production In March 2005, as Blue Sky Studios was completing Robots, the studio started courting Dr. Seuss ' widow Audrey Geisel on getting the adaptation rights for Horton Hears a Who !. The art director for Robots, Steve Martino, along with story consultant and additional scene director Jimmy Hayward, created a model of protagonist Horton and some animation tests to showcase their design ideas to Geisel, who eventually agreed on `` a seven - figure deal '' for both the book and its predecessor Horton Hatches the Egg. Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio were then hired to write the script, to be directed by Hayward and Martino with a set release date of 2008. Geisel was credited as a supervising producer and watched production up close, and also gave the directors full access to her late husband 's archives, and thus they investigated on his original sketches, 3 - D sculptures, work done for The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T and even memos Dr. Seuss traded with Chuck Jones during the production of the Grinch TV special. For references in doing the character animation, along with footage of the voice actors performing their lines, the Blue Sky animators recorded themselves performing the script in an `` acting room '' to see what of their body language could translate well into the film. To make Horton different from the mammoths Blue Sky worked with in the Ice Age series, the elephant would at times walk on two legs, in a way that it looked like `` a fat man in an elephant suit ''. While the design had a major difference from the original book, with a bigger mouth to allow for wider facial expressions like those of Jim Carrey, as the directors noticed Horton 's design in the book varied according to his emotion, the 3D wireframe tried to allow for the same effects. Soundtrack The original score for the film 's soundtrack album was composed by John Powell. A soundtrack, consisting of the film 's score, was released on March 25, 2008, by Varèse Sarabande. Near the end of the picture, the cast comes together and sings the song, `` Ca n't Fight This Feeling '' by REO Speedwagon. Horton Hears a Who !

Interpretations Horton Hears a Who !, like other Dr. Seuss creations, contains layered subtexts and messages. A major theme regards on learning about universal values between vastly different places and people, as shown by the quote `` A person 's a person, no matter how small ''. This is employed on many levels, primarily with Horton hearing a world in a speck, while also appearing with the Mayor 's relationship with his son, and Sour Kangaroo learning the truth about Horton 's beliefs. The movie characters display traditional gender roles. According to NPR host and father of three daughters Peter Sagal, `` In a new subplot added by the filmmakers, the mayor of Whoville has 96 daughters. He has one son. Guess who gets all his attention ? Guess who saves the day ?
