Abstract

en_US This is a landscape pamphlet of 32 pages. This storyteller works hard and well at setting a context. Muggs the female turtle encounters a greedy hare eating the cabbages she normally feeds on and suggests sharing them. Hare has a better idea: to hold a race, of which the winner gets all the cabbages. Muggs has to stop along the way to rescue the well-intentioned Rabbit from a ditch where she has fallen while trying to show Muggs how to run faster by hopping. Squirrel similarly tries to help with skipping and ends up slowing Muggs down. The best image portrays the key moment where the hare is sleeping and Muggs overtakes him. Rabbit and Squirrel cheer so loud that they wake the hare up. At this point, the story tries a whole new gambit. The hare actually wins the race, but Muggs suggests a second race, claiming that this result was unfair because her friends woke the hare up. This race will have as its goal home. When the race starts, Muggs declares herself winner because she is already home.
