The Hare and the Tortoise

 The Hare and the Tortoise

Once there lived a hare and tortoise in a forest. The hare was very proud of his speed. He used to make fun of the tortoise for being too slow. One day the tortoise challenged the hare to race. The hare accepted the challenge. The race started. The hare ran very fast. The tortoise was left much behind. The hare got tired and stopped to have some rest under the tree. He fell asleep. The tortoise passed him and reached the winning post. The hare woke up and ran as fast as he could. He saw that the tortoise was already at the winning post. The tortoise had won the race.

Moral:

Pride hath a fall.

Slow and steady wins the race.
