3. Horton Hatches the Egg
"An elephant's faithful, one hundred per cent!" Smooth-talking Mayzie bird convinces Horton to sit on her egg while she takes a vacation, promising she'll be right back, but after 50 weeks, Mayzie still doesn't return! Horton risks his life for the egg Mayzie abandoned, and should be a role model for all people alike. Dr. Suess' moral for this one: keep your promises!
