A surprise ending turns this rhyming story of the race between Tommie Turtle and Hoppy Bunny into a fun way of teaching character building values to children.
Tommie outwits the bunny to teach him valuable life-lessons about friendship.
Forgiveness, being nice to others, and not bragging and teasing, top the list of principles for learning how to be a friend.
