Jungle Ride with Lion and Tortoise

Once upon a time, there lived a lion and a turtle in Rwanda. The lion's name was Leo, and the turtle's name was simply Kame-san. One day they were walking along the road and talking about many things. Then they started arguing. "I can run fast," said Leo the Lion. He looked at the turtle and said, They are very long and strong." They walked without saying anything. Mr. Tortoise didn't particularly like Leo at the time. He didn't know that. Instead, he kept bragging.


"No animal can run faster than me,” said Leo, "I am the fastest!"

Mr. Tartus was angry.

"I can run fast, too!" he shouted, "You're not the best!"


Leo the Lion and Mr. Turtle were not very happy friends. Leo said he was sorry for the bad words he had said to Kame-san. Later, as they walked along the road, they laughed and told other funny stories. They have been good friends for a long time.

Story About Tortoise

Once upon a time, there lived a turtle in a pond. Two swans were visiting the same pond every day. The turtle was very talkative. It has been talking to swans for a very long time. Turtles and swans are good friends. Once upon a time, there was a long drought. As a result, the water in the pond has dried up. There was no water for them to drink.


The swans decided to move to another location. The turtle asked the swans to take him alone. The swan proposed a scheme in which the turtle held a stick in its mouth, and the swan grabbed both ends of the stick. They told the turtle not to talk, or he would fall and die. The turtle understood and promised not to open the frontage for this journey. Passing through the village, many people were surprised to see turtles. They yelled at the turtles and teased them. The tortoise got angry and opened its mouth to say something. However, when he opened his mouth, he fell to the ground. The swans were very shocked to see their comrades dead. The turtle died of impatience and stupidity.
