The Big Brag

"Of all of the beasts in the world, I'm the best!
on land, and on sea... even up in the sky
No animal lives who is better than I!"

In this hilarious book – featuring the preposterous rabbit – Dr. Seuss shows readers just how quickly and easily boasting can get out of hand.

It starts out harmlessly enough, with a rabbit feeling rather pleased with himself and his talent for hearing. A neighboring bear overhears the rabbit's boasting and takes offense. The challenge is on, and the bickering begins as the bear proclaims that his ability to smell is quite superior to the rabbit's hearing. It's up to a wise earthworm to point out the winner!

The Big Brag is a short story first published and often read within Yertle the Turtle and Other Stories (1958). By combining the funniest stories, craziest creatures and zaniest pictures with his unique blend of rhyme, rhythm and repetition, Dr. Seuss helps children of all ages and abilities to read.
