the Hare and the Tortoise by Rob John. Look at me, said the hair to the other animals. Just look how fast I can run. The hare ran across the field as fast as he could. All the animals agreed that yes, the hair was very fast. The hair ran back. See? He shouted, I'm not even out of breath. Yeah, that was fast set of Fox. So who wants to race? Said the hair. Anybody think they could beat me? None of the animals spoke. See, said the hare. You're all too scared to even try. I'll have a go, said the tortoise. The hair laughed. You the slowest creature in the whole world. I'm not wasting my time raising a tortoise. What's the matter? Said the tortoise. Scared I might beat you. Some of the animals laughed at that, so the hair said All right, then taught us. Let's have a race right now. Then we'll see who's laughing. Not today, said the tortoise. Well, race next week got to do a bit of training First. The next morning, the animals watched the tortoise do his training. First, he did some gentle stretching exercises to warm himself up and then he started to run. Has he started running yet? Asked the fox. Hard to tell with tortoises, said the badger. He's definitely moving. Is he said, the fox taught us. Are you sure about this? Said the Crow. I mean, the hair is very fast and you well.
