The Great Race

By Kevin O'Malley

Book Description

Nate Tortoise is tired of living in the shadow of Lever Lapin. He can't go anywhere or do anything without hearing about the great exploits of that pesky hare. And Lever's head has grown to match the size of his entourage. It isn't until Nate challenges Lever to a race that this hare is put in his place . . . giving new meaning to the phrase "slow and steady wins the race." Kevin O'Malley fans will cheer all the way to the finish line for this clever twist on the beloved fable.

“This is a funny take on a familiar tale…This would be a good choice for sharing fables with a slightly older crowd as well as an entertaining selection for comparative fable studies.” —The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
