Tortoise and Hare Race Script

The document summarizes a fable where a hare brags that he could beat a tortoise in a race due to his speed. They have a race with a fox as the referee at the finish line. During the race, the hare takes a nap because he thinks his speed will ensure an easy win, while the tortoise steadily walks the entire way. When the hare wakes up, he sees the tortoise has already reached the finish line, teaching the hare that steady and constant wins over speed and overconfidence.

SCRIPT:

Narrator: One day a hare was making fun at the tortoise.

Rabbit: Ha, ha, ha!  Your feet are so small and you walk so slow that you take too long
to get to a place.

Tortoise: You may be as faster as the wind, but I will beat you in a race.

Rabbit: That is simply impossible. Ha, ha, ha!  But, I agree, let`s have a race.

Tortoise: Very well then.  The fox will choose the way and will wait for us at the
winning post.

Fox: Very good!  I will be waiting for both of you.  Let`s see who wins!

Narrator: On the day of the race the two started the race together.

Fox: 1, 2, 3, Go!
Tortoise: I will not stop walking.  I will keep walking slow but at a steady pace straight
to the end of the finish line.

Rabbit: Oh well.  That tortoise walks so slow that I have time to take a nap.  zzzzzzzzzz

Narrator: When the hare woke up.

Rabbit: Oh I fell asleep.  I have to run as fast as I can.  I think I wasted some time.

Narrator: Then he saw the Tortoise had reached the winning post.

Rabbit: How did you do it?  This is impossible!

Tortoise: While you slept, I kept walking.   I may seem slow, but I am constant and
patient, so I won the race.

Rabbit: You`re right Tortoise,  Being fast doesn`t mean that you will win.  I learned my
lesson!

The End
