Summary/Abstract |
Yertle's story leads off with his attempt to build a bigger kingdom on the backs of his loyal subjects (literally). King of everything he can see, Yertle orders his turtles to stack up under him to build a towering throne. But a plain little turtle named Mack--stuck at the bottom--decides he's had enough and shows how all people should have rights!
A whiny girl-bird named Gertrude McFuzz wishes she had two feathers, just like Miss Lolla-Lee-Lou, but she has only one..and that one feather makes Gertrude so sad. But when Gertrude gets her wish she finds that vanity has its price. Meanwhile, in "The Big Brag," a proud rabbit and an even-prouder bear duke it out in a battle of the senses, arguing over who's the best of the beasts.
