I read this book by chance at a book store once, and immediately fell in love with it. In fact, I now send this this book to all my friends with newborns, and it has always been warmly received and appreciated. If you live in the Southwest (like I do), or just love the desert, you'll be drawn in by the desert setting and characters in the book. I really appreciate the non-denominational "Great Spirit" usage. The story is simple without being too cutesy, the artwork is incredible, and the ending moral tells little ones to listen more to others (something all of us could stand to do more of). All in all, a children's book that adults will enjoy reading. I highly recommend this book for any day-care/pre-school/home schooling setting: the morals are easily and enjoyably picked up by little ones.

This book was great for children and adults. The illustrations were great, and the story held wisdom for all ages. I bought it with intentions to give it as a gift and now I can't bear to part with it. This one is destined to be another childrens classic!

This is a slim beauty of a book with the friskiest rabbit and snappiest turtle youngsters have ever seen.

The characteristics of the animals remind young ones that we are all different and special in our own ways.

And, why was the jackrabbit given such long ears? You'll have to read the story to find out. But, remember: The better to hear you with m'dear.

Learn about desert life in a child like way. The illustrations are great. This book teaches about the value in us all.

The illustrations are a bonus to a wonderful story that should enchant any child that loves to be read to or can read. Triggers the imagination and teaches lessons without preaching. Beautiful!
