Story "The Hare and the Tortoise"

The Hare and the Tortoise

On day a Hare made fun of the short feet and slow pace of the Tortoise. The Tortoise laughed and said, "You may be as fast as the wind, but I will beat you in a race." The Hare, believing he would win the race, easily agreed. They decided the Fox should choose the course and fix the goal. On the day of the race, the two started together. The Tortoise never for a moment stopped. She went on with a slow but steady pace straight to the end of the course. The Hare thought he had plenty of time, so he lay down along the way and fell fast asleep. When he woke up, he moved as fast as he could to the end of the course, but he was too late. The Tortoise had already reached the goal, and the race was done.

Slow but steady wins the race.
