The Tortoise and the Hare is one of Aesop's Fables. The account of a race between unequal partners has attracted conflicting interpretations. It is itself a variant of a common folktale theme in which ingenuity and trickery are employed to overcome a stronger opponent. This origami is The Tortoise and the Hare.
Below is the tutorial:
And The Tortoise and the Hare story below:
In the forest, there is a fast rabbit. He likes to race other animals. He always wins. "I am very fast," he says. "I can win any race."
One day, the rabbit sees a turtle. "You are so slow. I am faster than you," he says. "Do you want to race me?""Yes," says the turtle. "Ha, ha. It will be easy to win," laughs the rabbit. "You will lose. Your legs are too short."
"Tomorrow we will have a race," says the rabbit. All of the animals are excited. They want to see the race. "The turtle will lose. He is too slow," they all say.
The turtle gets up early in the morning. The race is today. There are many animals at the race. The turtle walks to the starting line. All the animals laugh at him.
The rabbit is waiting for the turtle. "I will win," laughs the rabbit. "I will try my best," says the turtle.
The race begins. All of the other animals are excited. "Go, go, go," they say. The rabbit runs very quickly. The turtle walks slowly.
The rabbit turns around. The turtle is walking so slowly. "Ha, ha, you will never win this race," the rabbit says. The turtle is slower than the rabbit. The rabbit laughs at the turtle.
Then the rabbit sees a tree. "The turtle is so slow. I will take a nap. I can still win the race," says the rabbit. He goes to sleep under the tree.
The turtle keeps walking. He is tired and his legs hurt. The rabbit is sleeping under a tree. The turtle quietly walks past the rabbit. He is very quiet because he doesn't want to wake up the rabbit.
"I can do it! I can do it!" says the turtle. "My legs are short and I am slow, but I can win this race." The turtle can see the finish line.
Suddenly, the rabbit wakes up. The turtle is far away. "He will win!" he says. The rabbit runs, but it is too late. The turtle wins the race.
"Yeah! You are the best," say the other animals. "You are great!" The turtle is happy. The rabbit feels sad. All of the animals now laugh at the rabbit.
"Ha, ha, ha," they laugh. "You say you are the best, but the slow turtle is the winner," they say. "He is the best! The turtle is great!"
"I am slow. I have short legs. I am not fast, but I did it!" says the turtle. The rabbit is quiet. He slowly walks home.
