Excerpt:
\\u201cIs it true that you once beat Hare in a foot race? It can\\u2019t be true. But is it true?\\u201d

Tortoise sighed.

He continued walking along as the little black bird flapped around him. She landed on a nearby branch.

\\u201cI\\u2019ve heard that you\\u2019ve seen the world from above as a bird does when she\\u2019s flying. Is that true? How did you do it? It can\\u2019t be true. But is it true?\\u201d
