The Foolish Tortoise by Richard Buckley

Illustrated by Eric Carle

A tortoise, tired of being slow,
Impatient to get up and go,
Took off his large and heavy shell
And left it lying where it fell."

The foolish tortoise wants to move faster, so he decides to leave his heavy shell behind.

But then he's too scared to walk anywhere.
