Adapted posthumously from the illustration for the 1961 book, The Sneetches and Other Stories.
More than fifty years after it was published in 1961, Dr. Seuss’s The Sneetches continues to instruct children and adults on the universal lessons that combat hatred, prejudice, and indifference. The final stanza is delivered in Seussian perfection: I’m quite happy to say / That the Sneetches got really quite smart on that day, / The day they decided that Sneetches are Sneetches / And no kind of Sneetch is the best on the beaches. / That day, all the Sneetches forgot about stars / And whether they had one, or not, upon thars.
