This is a cute book told in the form of a fable. Targeted for children in the four to eight age range, it is probably more appropriate for those at the upper end of that range. The story mainly revolves around two animals, the crow and the rabbit. This crow sees a beautiful, lush, red, ripe tomato hanging from a tree and is dying to eat it, but the crow is hesitant because he fears the wolf might be lurking somewhere nearby. Along comes a rabbit who spies the same tomato; he does not hesitate! When he cannot budge it, the rabbit tries to pull it down with a rope. Even though he fails, the rabbit is undaunted. He scales the tree with the intention of eating it right there, but the crow flies by and warns him that the wolf might be coming. The crow convinces the rabbit to hide the tomato under a colorful blanket to disguise it.. Will the rabbit succeed in eating the tomato? Does the wolf show up confirming the crow's fears? What is the important lesson that children will learn from this tale?At the end of the book, the author offers a free booklet on facing your fears as well as a free audio book as a bonus for the purchaser.
