Dr. Seuss's classic treatise on bullying--now with fully color-enhanced illustrations! As topical today as when it was first published in 1938,
The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins is the story of a young boy (the same one featured in the Caldecott Honor Award-winner
Bartholomew and the Oobleck) and his unjust treatment at the hands of a king. Written in unrhymed prose,
The 500 Hats is one of Dr. Seuss's earliest works, and while it may not be as well-known as his other stories, the book addresses subjects that we know the good doctor was passionate about throughout his life: the abuse of power (as in
Yertle the Turtle and
Horton Hears a Who); rivalry (as in
The Sneetches); and of course, zany good humor (as in
The Cat in the Hat and all the other books he wrote and illustrated)!
