“The Hare and the Tortoise Story”

Once upon a time, there was a jungle. In that jungle, there lived a Tortoise and Hare. Both were very good friends. They always used to tease each other.

Once the Hare said to the Tortoise, “Oh! Tortoise Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! You are so dark. You are so slow. You have so much weight on your back. I don’t know how you even walk. Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!”
