The Big Race

by Shirley Glaser

When Harry Hare and Tommy Tortoise decide to have a race, Tommy takes off like the wind. In this version, Tommy passes some world-famous sights, including the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Egyptian pyramids, the geysers of Yellowstone National Park and many more. But when he grows weary and stops for a nap - guess who manages to beat him to the finish? In this clever format, though, the end is also the beginning as the book turns over to keep the story...
