[edit] The Story of the Zodiac (Book 1)

A long, long time ago, God said to the animals, "I'm inviting you all to my banquet tomorrow. Don't be late."

Hearing that, the mischievous Rat lied to his neighbor the Cat, and told him the banquet was the day after tomorrow.

The next day, the Rat rode on the back of the Ox, and nimbly landed before the banquet hall. After him followed the Ox, the Tiger, and all the rest, and together they feasted until morning.

All except for the poor cat, who had been tricked.

[edit] The Story of the Zodiac (Episode 1)

A long, long time ago, God decided to invite all of the animals to a banquet. He sent out word for all of them to come to his house the following evening, "And don't be late", he said. When the mischievous Rat heard the news, he decided to play a trick on his neighbor, the Cat. He told the Cat that the party was the day after tomorrow. The very next day, all of the animals lined up for the celebration, and the Rat led the way, riding all the way there on the back of the Cow. Everyone had a wonderful time.

Except for the foolish Cat, who missed the whole thing.
