librarybonanza 's review for:

The Race of the Century by Barry Downard
1.0

Age: 2nd-3rd grade
Media: Photo collage
Illustrator Style: This is the best part of this book because it incorporates a new, interesting style of art that will be sure to catch a kid's eye. Very busy with a lot of bizarre pictures of animals acting like humans

A humorous take on an old tale (Hare and the Tortoise), listeners and early readers should already know the plot premise. I suppose I gave it three stars because it provides a different artistic medium that children would really love, but the writing is quite abysmal.
