 The Hare and the
Tortoise
There was once a hare who was friends with a tortoise.
One day, he challenged the tortoise to a race.
Seeing how slow the tortoise was going, the hare thought he
would win this easily. So, he
took a nap while the tortoise kept on going.
When the hare woke up, he saw that the tortoise was already at the
finish line.
Much to his chagrin, the tortoise won the race while the hare was
busy sleeping.
[ Adapted from The Hare and the Tortoise by Aesop (c. 620 BCE-564 BCE].
