Tortoise and Hare: A Fairy Tale to Help You Find Balance (Feel-Good Fairy Tales #3)
Reading Level: 2nd − 3rd Grade

A fractured fairy tale to help kids slow down and find their energy, from New York Times bestseller and mindfulness expert Susan Verde!

Once upon a time there were two neighbors, Hare and Tortoise. Although they lived side by side, they did things very differently. Hare did everything quickly and energetically. But she was so busy that she didn't always pay attention to the things--or people--around her. Some might say she was too fast. Tortoise did everything slowly and thoughtfully. But sometimes he took so much time that he had trouble finishing things. Some might say he was too slow. What will happen when the two come head to head?
