C.A short story that illustrates a general truth about human nature using animals as characters

A major element of fables is the use of animals as characters. One popular fable is the tortoise and the hare. During the race, the hare decides to take a nap since he's much faster than the tortoise. The hare does not wake up in time and the tortoise wins the race because he kept on going. The general truth this fable shows is that it's not always the fastest one who wins, but rather the one who works hard and keeps at it.
