Tortoise and the Hare: An Aesop Fable | 
“The Tortoise meanwhile kept going slowly but steadily, and, after a time, passed the place where the Hare was sleeping.“
This story teaches children the value of perseverance to keep trying, and to not give up. Very important messages can be taught with this book and will build students confidence in overcoming challenges.
pickA lively retelling of the classic tale. This book has vibrant illustrations and engaging dialogue. I love this story because it highlights the moral that “slow and steady wins the race.“
A teacher could use this to have students compare this story to other books of the tortoise, and the hare. Students could compare and contrast the stories. This also shows how fables can change over time.
pickWeek 4: Traditional Literature. Such a great story with a great lesson for students. I love the illustrations in this one. as they are accurate and modern. Published 1984.
