THE TORTOISE AND THE HARE

Once upon a time there lived a hare. The hare could run very fast. It was proud of its speed. One day, the hare saw a tortoise walking very slowly. The hare laughed at the tortoise and said, 

“Oh! You are so slow,  hahahaha !” The tortoise said,

“My dear friend, you are so proud. Let’s have a race to see who is faster.”

So the hare and the tortoise had a race. The hare ran very fast and very far. Then it look back at the tortoise. The tortoise was far behind the hare. It was walking so slowly! The proud hare thought,

“The tortoise will take a very long time to come near me. Let me have a nap.” 

So it stopped running and went to sleep.

The tortoise slowly but steadily went past the hare. The tortoise walked and walked and never ever stopping until the finishing line.  The hare suddenly woke up and saw the tortoise just crossing the finishing line. The hare started running very fast. But it was too late. The tortoise had already won the race.
