- Abstract
- en_US We already have a 2013 copy of this book in the collection, this one missing its CD. As I wrote there, "Un conte écrit et raconté par Anne Roumanoff d'après les Fables de La Fontaine." This 32-page landscape-formatted book presents another extensive and engaging contemporary adaptation of La Fontaine's fable with delightful animal figures. Huluberlue La Tortue does everything slowly while Phildebert Le Lièvre hurries through everything. Even their respective families follow the same patterns. Huluberlue spends months training under a kind coach from school and, in a big race, she does well enough while Phildebert underestimates her and loses. The last pages offer La Fontaine's fable with helps and questions. This is the second of Roumanoff's adaptations that we are lucky enough to include in the collection. Not the least virtues of this book are the lively illustrations and the wonderfully concrete sense of what kids actually do!
