Just like Rabbit, Fox threw his shoe on the road. Bear came along and this time he picked the shoe up right away and threw it on the cart.
Foolish Fox should have stopped right then, but he didn't. He ran ahead and threw his other shoe on the road.
Bear came along, took the shoe, and threw it on the cart.
"Wait!" shouted Fox. "Those are my shoes."
"So you are the fish-thief!" Bear roared, and he beat Fox to death.
When Rabbit heard what Fox had done, he laughed and laughed.

ReplyDeleteOn the contrary, Rabbit actually used his brain!
