“Slow and steady wins the race.”

I would use this fable in my classroom to teach students about the importance of taking their time while doing their work and kind of use it as a learning moment.

This had an interesting story, but there were also aspects that that just didn‘t work well for me. I thought the information about virtual reality and how it could be used with hospital patients was great, and the development of the friendship between Addie & Mateo was wonderful. The backstory with Addie‘s mom and opiate addiction was originally very vague and wasn‘t resolved in a way that felt logical to me.

This story follow a slow tortoise and a speedy hare that are in a race. In this story, the hare is very confident that he will win because he is so much faster than the tortoise. The hare gets too ahead of himself that he takes a nap by the finish of the race for too long and the tortoise ends up winning.

This is a story that I clearly remember my mother reading to me as a child, so it was nice to reading it again. This is a story with a great message that transcends though time. I the illustrations in this copy were really good and I really enjoyed them.

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.

A 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.“

blurb

When the boastful Hare challenges the slow but steady Tortoise to a race, it seems like an easy victory for the speedy creature. However, Hare's overconfidence leads to unexpected consequences, while Tortoise's determination proves that slow and steady truly wins the race.
