The Hare and the Tortoise



O

nce there was  a hare. He was over-confident and proud of his speed . one day he saw a tortoise walking slowly on the bank of rive .he laughed at the slow speed of the tortoise and teased him . the tortoise  got angry  and challenged the hare to compete having a race. The hare agreed the proposal happily . They set the time and place for the race . as they started the race , the hare was much sure of his victory .after a few seconds , the hare covered half of the distance as it ran rapidly .He saw the tortoise was crawling near the starting point .the hare thought he could have  a rest under a tree for  a few minutes and did it . but he fell asleep .on the other hand ,the tortoise kept on running regularly . As the tortoise reached the last destination or point , the hare woke up and was that the tortoise wonthe race. The hare felt sorry for his mistake.

Moral: Slow and steady wins the race.
