Hare is the fastest on the farm.
Tortoise is as slow as they go.

So when they decide to have a race, Hare is certain to win . . . isn’t he?

The best-loved of all Aesop’s Fables has been made all the more enchanting with Alison Murray’s sense of fun, mischief and stylish charm.

Reviews

Another charming, classic picture book from Alison Murray...beautiful elegant illustrations
School Library Journal
An absolutely successful retelling of the classic tale; great for storytimes and recommended for any fable collection
Book List
It's hard to tell a well-known tale in a fresh, new way, but Alison Murray accomplishes that in her version of these famous competitors ... A friendly ending wraps up this excellent piece of bookmaking and reminds us there is more to life than winning-maybe a shared lettuce patch?
