THE TORTOISE AND THE HARE


Read the story below.
A hare once made fun of a tortoise. "What a
slow way you have!" he said. "How you
creep along!" "Do I?" said the tortoise. "Try
a race with me and I'll beat you." “Come! I
will race with you.” said the hare. "Let us
ask the fox," said the tortoise. The fox
showed them where they were to start, and
how far they were to run. The tortoise lost
no time. He started out at once. The hare
leaped along for a few minutes till he had
left the tortoise far behind. He knew he
could reach the mark quickly, so he lay down
and took a nap. By and by he awoke, he sprang
up and ran as fast as he could. But when he
reached the mark the tortoise was there!
"Slow and steady wins the race," said the fox.
