Once upon a time, in a sunny green forest, there lived a speedy hare who loved to boast about his speed. “No one can beat me in a race!” he’d brag to the other animals. One day, a slow but steady tortoise surprised everyone by accepting the hare’s challenge to a race.
The hare laughed, “You? Race me? This will be over in seconds!” But the tortoise replied calmly, “Slow and steady wins the race.”
The Race Begins
On the day of the race, all the animals gathered to watch. The hare zoomed ahead, leaving the tortoise far behind. Confident of victory, the hare decided to take a nap under a shady tree, thinking, “I’ll finish the race when I wake up. That slowpoke will never catch up!”
Meanwhile, the tortoise kept moving forward, one determined step at a time.
The Surprising Finish
When the hare finally woke up, he was shocked to see the tortoise nearing the finish line! He sprinted as fast as he could, but it was too late—the tortoise had already won.
The forest cheered for the tortoise, and the hare hung his head in shame.
Moral of the Story
💡 Persistence beats overconfidence.
This timeless tale teaches kids that:
- Hard work and consistency matter more than natural talent.
- Arrogance can lead to failure.
- Never underestimate others—even the smallest effort adds up!
