Description

A zippy retelling of the classic Aesop fable about learning humility. Hares are fast, and tortoises are slow - everyone knows that! But sometimes, winning a race isn't just about being fastest, it's also about just getting on with the job. For thousands of years, children and adults have been telling and retelling this tale, which always brings a smile. This latest version comes with free online audio.

Lesley dreamed of being a writer, but studied law as her mother insisted she had "something to fall back on". Since joining Usborne Publishing, she has written and edited hundreds of books, from funny rhyming stories to an award-winning history book. Nowadays, she is often found recording books, too, in Usborne's very own recording studio.
