Once upon a time in the animal kingdom, there was starvation due to famine. A few animals had food to eat most of them did not. One of these animals was tortoise. So one day, tortoise told them he had a solution to their problems: “I have a solution to our problems,” he said; "we must be going to one another’s house to eat."
Every animal was happy with the idea.
Everything went smoothly until it was zebra’s turn to cook. He was preparing porridge with stew. Tortoise was asked to guard the food and he accepted.
He scooped some food into his cap, put it back on his head, and left the place quickly. He began to sweat. He arrived home but surprisingly when he removed his cap, he had no hair. He learnt a great lesson. He cried.
