The Hare and the Tortoise (2 完)

The Hare and the Tortoise (2 完)

Quicker than you can say " Go " the hare sprang ahead and vanished down the path.

Meanwhile the tortoise went along at his usual slow speed.

Before long, the hare decided to stop and have a rest.
" After all, " he thought, " that slow tortoise will take hours to catch up with me ! "

So he stretched out on some shady grass.

Soon he began to yawn.
" Perhaps I'll just take a quick nap, " he said, and with that, he fell asleep.

Meanwhile the tortoise kept plodding along.

And when the hare awoke, the tortoise was at the finish line.



So the moral of the story is as follows;
In the end, slow and steady wins the race.
