BR-8： The Hare and the Tortoise

This time I will write about the book I read. The title is a “The Hare and the Tortoise ". Do you know this story? I know already it. Because I have read the same story written in Japanese. The story is that the hare which loved running more than anything in the world. The hare's name is a “harry ". Maybe Harry is the fastest hare in history. So Tom Tortoise heard Harry boasting. And He didn't think Harry was so special. Oh.. Tom Tortoise worked with Harry. And Harry was always laughing at Tom. “Take your time!! ". Then Harry said Tom “Let’s have a race to prove that I must be the fastest creature in the world.” Then Tom answered “I will race you, Harry.” And the race started. The race was known to every animal by all the newspapers and television. Harry would think that he would win, but he wanted to win by miles. So he chose a good long course for the race. But Tom didn't seem to be training at all. Harry raced off and disappeared almost at once. Everyone laughed as poor Tom plodded over the line. As soon as he was out of sight, Harry stopped beside a tree to rest. Because he was very tired after all his early morning training. Soon his eyes started closing and he was asleep. Meanwhile, Tom was slowly making his way along the course. Nobody knows Harry sleeping under his tree. Hours passed. The sun was setting and the air was cool. Then Harry woke up. And he felt much better after his nap. In same time, Tom arrived at the Goal!! Tom won!! And Harry lost. Tom didn't even look out of breath. The moral of the story about the hare and the tortoise is that “Slow and steady wins the race.'
