<p>With Barry Downard's zany photographs, this is a rip-roaring take on the timeless tale of the tortoise and the hare. Tom Tortoise challenges Flash Harry Hare, and it becomes a media event extraordinaire--the race of the century! But while Flash Harry gets distracted signing autographs for his adoring fans, stopping for photo ops, and snacking, Tom Tortoise keeps going, slowly and steadily, to win the race. The amusing text is complemented by photos that will have readers laughing out loud--and for kids who really pay attention, there are even more funny details embedded in the pictures.</p>

<p>Ordinary chickens might be satisfied to peck and scratch and roost in the coop. Not the sassy, stylish Carla! She hatches a plan that will take her from the barnyard to the bright lights―that is, if she can foil the sneaky schemes of four mischievous hens. Is Carla's Feather and Fur Show any match for the Scratch Soul Sisters? Will her road show ever get off the ground? Carla's flight to fame from hammy hatchling to entertainer eggs-traordinaire makes for a hilarious, rollicking tale. Witty, imaginative illustrations add to the fun.</p>
