Who's the best?

Little Brother Rabbit is running along on the sand in the forest when he sees the whale and the Elephant, talking together. Little Brother Rabbit listens carefully to what they are saying: ''You are the biggest thing on the land, Brother Elephant,'' says the Whale, ''and I am the biggest thing in the sea; if we join together we can rule all the animals in the world, and we can be the king and the Queen of all the habitats.'' “It’s brilliant'' trumpets the Elephant. Little Brother Rabbit thinks to himself. ''They don't rule me''. For this reason he runs away, and has a meeting with all the animals of the different habitats. All together prepare a plan. The eagles get a very long, very strong rope, and the giraffes get their big drum, and hide it a long way off in the bushes. Then Little Brother Rabbit go along the beach till he came to the Whale. ''Oh, please, dear, strong Mr. Whale,'' he says, '' Can you do me a favour? The rhino is on a hole and I can’t save it. But you are so strong...'' The Whale is so happy with the compliment that he said, ''Yes,'' at once. Then,'' says the Rabbit, ''I tie this end of my long rope to you, and I run away and tie the other end round my camel, and when I am ready I beat my big drum. When you hear that, pull very, very hard, to help the rhino that is in the hole.'' ''Huh!'' grunts the Whale, “I can save the rhino.'' Little Brother Rabbit ties the rope-end to the whale, and runs till he come to the place where the Elephant is.
