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)!

      When young Bartholomew takes his hat off before the king (as is the rule), another hat strangely takes its place. King Derwin is infuriated and sets out to teach "this impudent trickster" a lesson. This anniversary edition of the Seuss classic features "color-enhanced" illustrations. The richer colors add life to the lengthy tale.
