“If I could sit high, how much greater I’d be!
What a king! I’d be ruler of all I could see!”
So Yertle, the Turtle King, lifted his hand
And Yertle, the Turtle King, gave a command.
He ordered nine turtles to swim to his stone
And, using these turtles, he built a new throne.
from Yertle the Turtle by Dr. Seuss (link)

Commenting is not available in this channel entry.i love turtles (the candy AND the naimal!) and i love this picture.
by the way, what brand is this?
I’m sorry, it’s turtles all the way down…
Cybele…I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…you’re awesome! Thank you for bringing fun to my day! (I’m a HUGE Yertle the Turtle fan!)
Couldn’t agree more Michelle! On the other subject ..... I am NOT a fan of the original candy turtles. DeMet’s? Ohhh, awful, terrible. The aftertaste is scary/stale. Never again for that brand. First, think of the best chocolates+caramel+fresh pecans!! It has to be REAL .... not fake. Put your bucks on Fannie May. Also, See’s kitchens sells marvelous/likewise candies. Both brands equal awesome (FRESH!) flavors. People .... you’ll pay more for them, but definitely enjoy the excellent quality.
