Three fables about being kind no matter what level of power/authority; another about being happy with the things you have (not coveting those of others); and another about not trying to be "better" than others. This book is frequently banned based on Yertle’s story and Mack demanding that the turtles on the bottom of the tower have rights just like those at the top. By many, this book is seen as too political. However, reading with a modern eye, I think that story two, Gertrude McFuzz would be just as, if not more problematic. Gertrude is not happy with who they are. They want a second feather just like someone else has. And she gets a doc to give it to her. But then she regrets it in the end. I know this story is meant to show that children are perfect the way they are, but at the same time it could be seen as anti-trans, or as transition regret. This book is a product of it’s time. This book shouldn’t be banned, but maybe it should just be left in the area of nostalgia. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
