a hare boasted to the entire planet of his victory in The 

International Space Race.   As he boasted in his 

triumphant manner he made many enemies in the 

process including me, a young tortoise of the galaxy B-

12 who wanted to show this pompous hare that anyone 

can beat him.

I had a ship to race with that I had never used.   I 

knew that my ship was not as fast as the hare 

and his record gas-guzzling, breaker speeder.   I 

knew that the slow and steady pace could save 

my fuel and allow me to possibly be victorious.

That very day, I challenged the hare to a 

space race in front of the entire town.   The 

hare snickered with laughter as I issued the 

challenge and agreed to a race to the planet of 

Gettinterf.   In my head, I felt excitement rush 

over me as I had my chance to defeat the hare 

at his own game.

The hare and I lined up at the starting line and 

prepared to race.   Silence came over the 

crowd as the launch sequence began.   As the 

count struck one,   ZOOM, the race began and 

the hare took a quick lead.   I took my slow and 

steady ship and began to cruise along as I 

passed planets one by one. 

As the hare rounded Gettinterf, he noticed 

that I was very far behind him.   He thought 

a nap was in order as he cruised to the 

finish line.

As the hare approached Hergaferg once 

more, he went to remove him feet from the 

console when his foot hit the controls.   The   

ship, moving at incredible speed veered far 

off course.   The hair had no time to recover 

and crashed into the planet, directly in 

front of the finish line. The crowd gasped 

as the hare had been knocked unconscious.  

I saw the crash and took advantage of the 

unconscious hare.   I crossed the finish line 

in my slow and steady pace and shouted to 

the the townspeople that I had won.   I had 

defeated the fastest ship in all the galaxy.
