Mora, Pat the Race of Toad and Deer.


Il. by Domi. ISBN 0-8889-434-6. Toronto, Ontario: Groundwood Books/ Douglas & McIntyre, 2001. Unp. $15.95. This colorful book is reminiscent of Aesop's fable about the tortoise and the hare, in this case telling a story about a race between a toad and a deer. Beautifully illustrated, the book depicts how a toad cleverly outwits the deer, who is confident of a convincing victory. Readers may learn not to underestimate intelligence. Ages 3-5.--S.G.
