A long time ago,
the rabbit and the
snake were good
friends.
One day they
began to chat with
each other. But the
rabbit was much
cleverer than the
snake, and the
snake knew it!
So, they were
discussing who
could stare the
longest. The snake
said, "Let's try it. I
will win by staring
at you." So the
rabbit agreed to
the staring game.
The snake and the
rabbit began to
stare. They kept on
doing it for several
minutes.
Then the snake got
tired. So he got out
of his body and
only his skin was
left looking at the
rabbit.
The rabbit
continued looking
at the snake's skin
for several hours.
The rabbit thought
he was the
cleverest animal,
but on that day, his
cleverness was
ended. And that's
why to this day the
rabbit sleeps with
his eyes open!
