what's inside.
The story.
A clever hare outsmarts a lazy bear by offering to farm his land and split the harvest - but the hare always makes sure to keep the best parts for himself. Based on traditional trickster tales, this Caldecott Honor book is read from top to bottom, with pages that open vertically to reveal what grows above and below the ground.
