“A deep dive twist on the classic Aesop fable, Bert the Tortoise and Buddy the Hare are two unlikely friends who start off as bitter rivals. They even compete in front of the entire Animal Kingdom shortly after they meet in what is known as “the race of the century”, when Bert challenges an overly arrogant Buddy in front of a crowd. However, there’s more to this world than meets the eye. As Buddy the Hare starts learning more about the curious case of Bert the Tortoise, he comes to learn a bit more about the world around him as a whole. Real magic within the civilized woodland city they live in, disturbing truths of the Animal kingdom’s past, tales of tragedy and war across the Food chain, and they’re even faced with death when they encounter an estranged rogue aptly named “The Savage”. A story with heart, humor, action, and life lessons for all ages. Bert and Buddy show the world that anyone can make a difference, but we must work together in order to make it happen. “
