Publisher's Note Look at classic children's tales from a new perspective! One story, two views. Colorful flip books present a traditional tales and -- on the flip side -- a humorous new version from another character's perspective. Favorite children's tales get a modern update by well-known author Dr. Alvin Granowsky. Even the illustrations underscore two differing perspective. Winning isn't everything, says the hare. His change of heart allowed the tortoise to win the race -- and allowed the hare to win new friends.
