I've always heard people say, "The book was better", after seeing a movie taken from a book. I never knew, because I almost never read the book. I did read this one, I just couldn't put it down. I read it in less than a day!
There was one change in the movie that I did'nt really like.
In the book, JoJo is a little twirp.He's a shirker. He's yo-yoing at a time when every prayer is needed. In the end, it is his prayer, "YOPP", that makes the differnce - the prayer that turns everything around.
For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
We all behave as little twirps at times. We shirk our responsibilities. We yo-yo when we should be praying. But if we confess our sins, God is faithful to forgive.

"Keep watching the skies"
Immediately after the distress of those days the sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky,
and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.
At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other. Matthew 24

I couldn't help but compare the showdown scene between Horton, Morton and all the Who's with the Kangaroos, the Monkeys and all the rest - It was much like the showdown between The Prophet Elijah and the Prophets of Baal (and the kangaroo Jezebel)
I believe another showdown is yet to come.
