Product Description
The Tortoise and the Hare with a southwestern flair. Tortoise, living comfortably in her home on Slow Lane, awakens one morning feeling good and challenges cocky Jackrabbit to a race. Patiently bumping her way through the desert landscape, Tortoise heads for the finish line as Jackrabbit cheerfully skips--and sleeps. Roadrunner, Tarantula, Gila Monster and even a Javelina or three cheer them on. Irresistible fun for the young and old alike.

• The Tortoise And The Jackrabbit 02 July, 2000
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!

• Must-read Retelling Of The Classic Aesop Fable 15 August, 2007
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.
