Summary
A cloud of dust flew off the spot where little Arch had landed,
The eagle looked on stony faced as Archibald expanded.
He sucked down in with great aplomb a hefty, labored breath,
Then glanced at Balthazar and quoth, I'm not afraid of death...
A tussle between the warrior eagle Balthazar and the timid tortoise Archibald becomes an epic battle of words. Aimed at ages six and above, The Tortoise & The Eagle is the first in the Cracknell's Crazy Creatures series, which focuses on encouraging inquiry, building vocabulary, and teaching valuable lessons on respect and morality (but not in a 'heavy' way!).
