Once a hare and a tortoise lived in a jungle. The
tortoise was very slow to run. So the hare always
made fun of him.
One day the hare invited the tortoise to a race. The
tortoise agreed. All other animals of the jungle came
to see the race.
The race started. The hare ran fast and soon was far
ahead of the tortoise. He looked back and there was
no trace of the tortoise. "The tortoise is too slow,"
thought the hare. "He will take a long time to reach
here. Let me have some rest. When the tortoise
comes I shall run fast and win the race."
The hare lay down in the shade of a tree. It was
summer and the sun was very hot. But it was cool
under the tree. The hare fell asleep.
After a short sleep the hare woke up and ran very fast.
But he was too late. The tortoise had already reached
the finishing mark and won the race.
Moral : Speedy and Unsteady fast asleep
