THE GREAT RACE
Mino La Franca
eBook
In the Republic of the Animals a big event is announced: the annual horses race, The Great Race!Posters everywhere, the golden cup for the winner exhibited in the local Horse Club. Big expectation everywhere and arrival in town of the best horses from all over the country.Our friends, The Ordinary Animals, look sadly at these events. Why? The aim of the book is to tell our children that nothing is impossible when there is a strong will. And also that one should never be presumptuous and arrogant!The book is part of “The Free Republic of the Animals” series for which I created:1. Educational books, such as "The Great Friends learn the Letters", "The Great Friends learn the Numbers”, "The Great Friends learn the Colors”, "The Great Friends learn the Shapes” and “Why do Geese fly in V?”2. My personal versions of famous children's books with animals as subjects such as "Cinderella", “Snow White”, “The Jungle Book”, “The Three Musketeers” and “Around the World in Eighty Days”.3. My personal stories such as “Roma Animalia”, “The Goosy Family goes to the Enchanted Forest”, “The Great Friends go on a cruise”, “The Adventures of Casanova”, “Animal Museum” and this “The Great Race”.All the images are not illustrations but they consist of real photographs both for the backgrounds and the animals.
