Details

"Flap Your Wings" is a children's book written and illustrated by Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel). The story revolves around a young bird named Gertrude McFuzz who becomes envious of Lolla-Lee-Lou, a bird with beautiful tail feathers. Gertrude is determined to have more impressive feathers, so she eats a small berry to make her tail grow. However, she eats too many berries, and her tail grows uncontrollably.

As Gertrude's tail grows larger and more unwieldy, she realizes that having more isn't always better. She becomes stuck in a tree and realizes the importance of being content with oneself and what one has. In the end, Gertrude learns to appreciate her original tail feathers and is happy with who she is.

Through whimsical rhymes and colorful illustrations, "Flap Your Wings" imparts important lessons about self-acceptance, being grateful for what one has, and the dangers of jealousy and greed. It encourages children to embrace their uniqueness and appreciate the beauty within themselves. Like many of Dr. Seuss's works, "Flap Your Wings" combines entertaining storytelling with valuable life lessons, making it a cherished addition to children's literature.

Aimed at early readers - from four to seven - the books are designed to bridge the gap between concept books written for preschoolers and more formal non-fiction titles that require fluent reading skills.
