Harold’s Bookshelf, Reviewer’s Bookwatch of the Midwest Book — 4/1/2007

Basically this is the story of the Turtle and the Hare as told by the Native American Choctaw nation. In this version we learn the value of friends and helping one another. As expected Turtle wins this race but there is something unusual about this particular turtle. A delightful read and well-illustrated When Turtle Grew Feathers is a highly recommended children’s book.
