(translated by Bence)

(translated by Bence)

By himself, he thought shattered one day: "How can I have a distinctive personality here in the forest, where there are so many different animals. Each one is outstanding in its own way. I have to look for a more suitable area." So he set off to leave the forest. He came into the desert. But there was no animal to whom his personality could have been expressed. So he set off again to search. He came to a meadow where many sheep grazed. "What is the name of this land?" He asked the first sheep. The answer came promptly and was very simple: "Baaah!" "This is the ideal place for me!" - thought the hare.
