The Really Groovy Story of the Tortoise and the Hare

By Kristyn Crow and Christina Forshay

Deep inside the city was a hip and happy hare. He was zipping, sometimes lippy, takin' taxis everywhere. Way out in the country was a tortoise calm and cool. He was quite the mellow fellow chillin' out beside the pool. Kids will love to move and groove with this dynamic duo as they hop and pop towards the finish line in this hip-hopping retelling of the classic tale.

[e0a0leonard · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Cute cartoonish illustrations, slightly updated, but the language still feels outdated.
