Abstract: en_US This booklet takes the hare through a number of attempted escapes from danger. He runs from the storm, a deer, a bird, a hedgehog (an army of swords and daggers, the hare cries), a bull, a ram, a fox, a hyena, a rooster, mice!, and horses. I can see why Stobbs is a Greenaway award winner. The art is beautiful! He is at his best with diving frogs. The book does an exceptional job getting facing pages to correlate well with each other at the seam. There is a good Warning at the end: This fable shows how unreasonable many people are, living in such continual fear and distress about the misery of their condition when there is always someone worse off than themselves.
