(3) K-3 Illustrated by Christopher Denise. In this update of "The Tortoise and the Hare," Rabbit challenges Turtle to a race to school, with Rabbit on foot and Turtle riding the bus. Rabbit appears the clear winner--until his snack stop proves his undoing. The simple text is well suited to the story and to the intended audience of beginning readers. Denise's soft, old-fashioned illustrations feature expressive animal characters.
