Hardcover. NY, Hyperion Books, 1st, 2005, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover, color illustrations by Milton Glaser. SIGNED by both Shirley and Milton Glaser. When Harry Hare and Tommy Tortoise decide to have a race, Harry takes off like the wind. In this version, Harry passes some world-famous sights, including the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Great Wall of China, the Pyramids, the Parthenon, and more! But when he grows weary and stops for a nap-guess who manages to beat him to the finish? In this clever format, though, the end is also the beginning, as the book turns over to keep the story continuing again and again. Parents will love sharing this age-old fable with their children through this ingeniously designed picture book.
