Yesterday I received my ARC (advanced reading copy) of my second book coming out this fall. It's
Tortoise and Hare's Amazing Race by
Marianne Berkes, a retired teacher and librarian, now a full time children's book author and presenter. This is our third picture book together and we are working away on our fourth to come out spring 2016.
Arbordale Publishing is the publisher and they specialize in fun stories that build on science, nature and math skills.
Tortoise and Hare is a retelling of the classic story with a math twist. Fractions and distance measurements mark progress for Henry Hare and Tess Tortoise along the way.

How far to the top? 1,760 yards or one mile! |
|
No Henry, you really don't have time to play, but you never did listen to me... |
|
5,280 feet is the same as one mile. I already knew that because Denver is the Mile Hi City. |
