    The Slow and Steady Tortoise

    Once upon a time, there was a rabbit and a tortoise. The rabbit was very proud of his speed and often boasted about how fast he could run. The tortoise, on the other hand, was slow and steady.

    One day, the rabbit challenged the tortoise to a race. The tortoise agreed, and they set off. The rabbit ran so fast that he soon disappeared from sight, leaving the tortoise far behind.

    Feeling overconfident, the rabbit decided to take a nap under a tree. But when he woke, he realised he had slept too long. The tortoise, who had been moving slowly but steadily, had already passed him.

    The rabbit ran as fast as possible, but it was too late. The tortoise had already reached the finish line and won the race. The rabbit was ashamed of himself for being so overconfident and losing to someone who was slower than him.

    From that day on, the rabbit learned to be humble and respect others, regardless of their abilities. And the tortoise, who had always been slow and steady, was now known as the winner of the great race.

    MORAL

    The moral of the story of the rabbit and the tortoise is that slow and steady wins the race. It teaches us that being overconfident and underestimating others can lead to failure. The tortoise, who was slow and steady, ended up winning the race because he never gave up and kept moving forward. Meanwhile, the rabbit, who was fast but overconfident, lost the race because he became complacent and took a nap. This story encourages us to be humble, persistent, and respect others’ abilities, regardless of their appearance or speed. It also teaches us that success comes from consistent effort, not just raw talent or speed.
