What a surprising pleasure. This book arrived as a gift and it is beautiful. The classic story is told in a voice that every child will adore, and the pictures are so lively that every reader becomes enraptured. Very nice and a great gift.
Must-read retelling of the classic Aesop fable
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Richly illustrated, imaginative retelling of the classic Aesop fable of perseverance, set in the Sonoran Desert. The fun and lovely pictures are full of actual native flora and fauna. It's a must-read for any desert-dwelling child, or to supplement study on desert habitats, or for that child who needs a bit of encouragement to keep on keepin' on.

Susan Lowell has adapted the classtic story of the Tortoise and the Hare perfectly for desert readers. As a kindergarten teacher in Arizona, I love reading this story to my students because it is relevant for them. They love listening to it!
