Harry Hare love running and he loves talking about it too. When he suggests a race nobody expects Tom Tortoise to take up the challenge.

I like the book.because I liked the ending of this book for the tortoise.but the hare was way too fast for it. And the hare ran out of energy to run to the finish line.

It was good because the hare realised that you don't have to speed through to win, the tortoise told him slow and steady always wins the race.

This book is a good one of my favourite list. I interest this book because it's about a competion and a big lessons for the hare. It gave me a new lessons. The hare was always underestimate to the tortoise. One day, the hare made a running race to competed with the tortoise. The hare thought he was sure to win because he knew the tortoise was slowly at running. First, the hare ran very fast but half of the competion he was very tired. So he rested under a tree and fell asleep. When he woke-up, the tortoise was near the goal. He run very quickly but the tortoise won the competion. So I want to say we don't need to expert everything. But everyone have to try hard until reach the goal.

The hare always thought he would win because he is super speedy. In a race everyone laughed because the tortoise would be too slow to win a race. When the hare got to the end he stopped and he took a nap. The tortoise sneakily went past and then the hare woke up, he ran, running as fast as he could. The tortoise won. The hare said “how can a tortoise win? It’s not fair”. They are teaching you that slow and steady wins the race. I like it because the hare was funny because he thought he would always win but he can’t always.

I think it’s funny that the hare goes too fast and falls asleep. I’m happy the tortoise wins because he keeps going.

I liked that the tortoise won the race even if he was really slow.
