There are two main characters. A rabbit which has antlers. Then a deer which has no antlers. The rabbit had made a boast of his antlers to other animals all the time. One day, the rabbit met the deer and talked proudly of his antlers as usual. Since the deer has no antlers, he was envious of the rabbit's antlers. He praised it and asked the rabbit to borrow it. The rabbit was glad of compliments on his antlers, so handed it to the deer. The deer received and gazed at it, came to want it more and more. He praised it again and asked the rabbit whether he may put it on his head. The rabbit became in good temper and granted the deer's request. The deer put the rabbit's antlers on his head and ran to a riverbank. He looked at his reflection in the river in fascination and said to rabbit that the antlers suited himself the best. Then the deer with the rabbit's antlers crossed a river and ran into forests. The rabbit tried to chase him, but he couldn't cross the river because he couldn't swim. Since then, every day the rabbit looked for the deer while crying, however he could not find the deer. He cried so much that his eyes became red.
I like this story because this teaches us that if we are arrogant, we will get hurt.
