Klo, a turtle, boasts about being the fastest animal in the land. However, when the queen sends him on an errand, his boasting proves his undoing. Too much running leaves him with not enough time to get home.
The Oxford Reading Tree Traditional Tales series includes 36 enchanting stories from all over the world, complementing the original Traditional Tales titles published in 2011.

All the stories are carefully levelled and matched to the phonics progression of the Oxford Reading Levels, enabling children to read the stories independently. The stories can also be used alongside other phonics programmes, such as Floppy's Phonics and Essential Letters and Sounds.
The inside cover notes will guide teachers and parents/carers in supporting their children when reading the stories. The stories will delight children while developing the essential reading skills of decoding and comprehension. Written and illustrated by authors and artists from around the world, these tales are a true global series, perfect for any child anywhere.
