The Hare and the Tortoise The Hare thought she was the speediest thing on four legs.She said to the Tortoise,“You will never find anyone faster than me.” The Hare thoughtthat she could beat anyone in a race, and she said so to the Tortoise.The Tortoise said,“Try me.”So a race was organised. The Hare and Tortoise turned up at thetrack, and when the judge said,“GO!” the hare shot off. The tortoise set off at a slow speed,just trundling along.Further along the track, the Hare decided that she had time for aquick sleep. She settled down underneath a huge tree, and dozed off.The Tortoise strolled by eventually, and tip toed past the Hare so hedidn’t wake her up. The race continued, and slowly, the tortoise gottowards the finishing line. There was still no sign of the Hare. Thetortoise walked through the winners tape, and was given a trophy forwinning the race. Just then, the Hare came hurtling round the corner,shouting,“I win, I win, I win!!!” But then she saw the tortoise holding thetrophy, and could not believe her eyes. The tortoise laughed, and said,“Slow and steady wins the race.” His nickname from that day onwas “Lightning”, because he beat the hare in the race.
