About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is constantly racing to the next activity, struggling with transitions, or becoming frustrated by friends who move at a different pace. It serves as a gentle corrective for the 'go, go, go' energy of early childhood by validating the need for both action and preparation. Unlike the traditional fable which focuses on a winner and a loser, this story focuses on how two very different personalities can successfully navigate a shared goal. The story follows Bunny and Turtle as they prepare to climb a mountain. While Bunny is impulsive and ready to run, Turtle is methodical and thoughtful. Through their journey, children ages 3 to 6 see that patience isn't just about waiting, it is about being present. Parents will appreciate how it models a healthy friendship where differences are celebrated rather than criticized, making it an excellent tool for discussing neurodiversity or different learning styles in a metaphorical way.
