Book Reviews of Yertle the Turtle and Other Stories

Book Review: Should be required reading at all levels of education
Summary: 5 Stars

Yertle the Turtle's a marvelous book,

I'd say that you'd like to take a good look.

It's true, it's true, got's a moral or two,

Much more than others who only have few.

Now, I say, there's more than all that,

There's wubbulous pictures (but none of a rat).

I say, says I, that we should all read,

A book like the Turtle is one we all need.

To learn about boasting, to learn about greed,

Our conscious this story will certainly feed.

Now the time has come for this review to close,

I wish that all would see what this book bravely shows.

Its what's needed to ward off the foes

Of all the drainers of all of our smarts and all of our knows.
