Publisher's Synopsis
Clover the turtle wishes she could win a race and a shiny trophy just like her owner and all the other animals in the yard, but she isn't very fast. When a rude crow taunts her for being too slow, she decides to prove her wrong. Though her racing career doesn't earn her as many trophies as she'd like, she discovers that she loves hurdling more than anything else. The Turtle Who Hurdled is about finding joy in doing something for its own sake, not earning trophies or bragging rights.
