Between it's pages the will meet King Yertle the Turtle who's ambitions to be master of all he sees are thwarted by a turtle called Mack whose burping literally topples Yertle's world.

Then there is the overweening Gertrude McFuzz whose tail grows too big for her boots.

Finally readers will meet a boastful rabbit and bear who soon find out that their bragging just serves to make them look foolish, as indeed bragging does to all of us!
