The Sneetches : and Other Stories by Dr. Seuss






The Sneetches is a picture book about two different groups of Sneetches, those with stars and those without.  The Plain-Belly Sneetches are left out of many activities and thought to be of a lower class.  They are not allowed to do the activities the Star-Bellied Sneetches.  A man with a machine changes the Plain-Bellied Sneetches into Star-Bellied Sneetches.  The story follows all the Plain-Bellied Sneetches as they try to be the same as the Star-Bellied Sneetches.  Whereas the Star-Bellied Sneetches are trying to distance themselves from the lesser Sneetches.  In the end, the Sneetches realize it doesn't matter if you have a star or not, they are all Sneetches and should treat each other equally.
