Yertle the Turtle and Other Stories 

Hardcover – April 12, 1958

Three popular tales by the famous Dr. Seuss--Yertle the Turtle, Gertrude McFuzz, and The Big Brag--teach a lesson about the consequences of being thoughtless, vain, and conceited. 100,000 first printing.

Dr. Seuss presents three modern fables in the rhyming favorite Yertle the Turtle and Other Stories. The collection features tales about greed (“Yertle the Turtle”), vanity (“Gertrude McFuzz”), and pride (“The Big Brag”). In no other book does a small burp have such political importance! Yet again, Dr. Seuss proves that he and classic picture books go hand in hand.
