"Yertle the Turtle" by Dr. Seuss is a story about a turtle king who becomes tyrannical and power-hungry, climbing on the backs of other turtles to reach higher levels of authority. The moral of the story is a cautionary tale against abusing power and mistreating others.
The turtle's name was Yertle in the famous Dr. Seuss story "Yertle the Turtle."
Yertle, the king, was mad that Mack, the bottom Turtle, wasn't willing to sacrifice more for his glory. The the bottom guy was getting crushed, all to "beautify" the top guy's view (of himself and the world).
