Buggy Races
Once upon a time there lived two best friends, the hare and the tortoise. They
liked to race against each other, but the hare always won.
One day, the hare asked the tortoise to race down to the beach. The tortoise

refused, he said that he will loose anyway. The hare replied in a kind voice that
he felt sorry about it.
But the next day, the hare found a way to race the tortoise that would be fair
and lots of fun too. He asked the tortoise to come with him. The tortoise was
slowly plodding over the sandhill towards the beach. Now the two friends can
race against each other all day and something tells me that the tortoise might
win this time.
