THE LITTLE RED HEN

“Then, probably because she had acquired the habit, the Red Hen called: ‘Who will eat the Bread?’ All the animals in the barnyard were watching hungrily and smacking their lips in anticipation, and the pig said, ‘I will,’ and the Cat said, ‘I will,’ and the Rat said, ‘I will.’ But the Little Red Hen said, ‘No, you won’t. I will.’ And she did.”

“Well, we’ll soon find that out,” thought the old queen. But she said nothing, went into the bed-room, took all the bedding off the bedspread, and laid a pea on the bottom; then she took twenty mattresses and lad them on the pea, and then twenty eider-down beds on top of mattresses.”

THE TORTOISE AND THE HARE

“The tortoise never for a moment stopped, but went on with a slow but steady pace straight to the end of the course. The hare, trusting to his native swiftness, cared little about the race, and lying down by the wayside, fell asleep. At last, waking up, and moving as fast as he could, he saw the tortoise had reached the goal and was comfortably dozing after fatigue.”
