The Hare and His Ears 🐇🦁 | A Simple Audiobook Story for Kids | Aesop’s Fables
Once upon a time, a Lion was enjoying a meal.
He was eating a Goat when something unexpected happened.
The Goat’s sharp horns scratched and hurt him.
“Ouch!” roared the Lion.
He became very angry.
“How dare animals have horns that can hurt me!” he growled.
The Lion was king of the animals, and when he gave an order, everyone listened.
So he made a new rule.
“All animals with horns must leave my kingdom within twenty-four hours!” he declared.
The news spread quickly through the forest.
The Deer were worried.
The Goats were frightened.
The Antelope hurried to pack their belongings.
Everyone with horns prepared to leave.
Now, there was one animal who did not have horns at all.
It was the Hare.
The Hare should have felt safe.
But instead, he became very nervous.
That night, he worried so much that he could hardly sleep.
“What if the Lion makes a mistake?” he thought.
“What if he thinks I have horns?”
The next morning, the Hare stepped outside his burrow.
The sun was shining brightly.
As he looked down, he noticed his shadow on the ground.
His long ears made a shape that looked a little bit like horns.
The Hare gasped.
“Oh no!” he cried.
“What if the Lion sees my ears and thinks they are horns?”
Just then, he saw a Cricket nearby.
“Goodbye, neighbor Cricket!” called the Hare.
“Where are you going?” asked the Cricket.
“I’m leaving at once,” said the Hare.
“The Lion might think my ears are horns, and I don’t want to take any chances!”
And off he ran as fast as his long legs could carry him.
The Hare had learned that when someone is looking for a reason to blame others, even the smallest thing can be misunderstood.
