In this gentle opposites-attract story, plodding Tortoise likes to take his time while his energetic friend Hare races from one activity to another, always eager to see what's next. Expansive illustrations in muted springtime shades showcase the adventures of these good friends as they move through their day together, culminating in a shared story time that flies by too fast even for Hare.
