About this work
Six hares jump up and down on the bank of a stream, in which frogs are swimming. The fable tells how once the hares were startled by the wind and ran in fear towards a stream. By this behavior, the frogs jumped into the water in panic. This reaction gave the hares renewed courage and self-confidence.
