The Rabbit and the Dancing Fish

Walking through the forest, Rabbit heard the sound of music coming from the river.

Then he saw them: the Fish were making music, singing, and dancing in the river.

"What beautiful music!" shouted Rabbit. "Come up here on the riverbank so I can sing and dance with you."

The Fish clambered up on the riverbank, singing and dancing with Rabbit.

"It's hot!" Rabbit said. "I'll build a grass hut so we can rest in the shade."
Rabbit built the hut. 

Then, after the Fish danced into the hut, Rabbit burnt the hut to the ground and feasted on the Fish.
