A tortoise tries to find someone who will play with him at his own speed. - Random House, Inc.
The author-illustrator team who brought us the best-selling LITTLE BEAR series offers a reassuring reminder that thereâs an ideal friend for everyone, no matter what your style.
I wish I had someone to play with, thought Harry.
Someone not quick who has time to play with a tortoise.
No question, Harry Tortoise is slow. Heâs very, very, very slow. And everyone is so fast. If only he could find a friend as slow as he is, they could play games like Slow Races, and Turning Around and Turning Around Again. Even better, they could talk about how good it is to be slow, and how very, very nice it is to be friends. Isnât there anyone out there who appreciates life in the s-l-o-w lane?
