Long ago, there was a severe famine in the land. All the animals were hungry, but none was as clever as Rabbit. One day, Rabbit heard about a tree in a faraway land that bore delicious, ripe fruits all year round. The journey was long and dangerous, but hunger gnawed at Rabbit's stomach. Rabbit decided he must find this tree. He packed a small bag with dried leaves and set off.

Along the way, he met Fox who was also looking thin and hungry.
