Mr Hare crept out of his forest home. The morning sky was blue. The grass was green. The trees swayed in the cool breeze. The forest was full of the songs of birds. But…
On his doormat lay something he’d never seen before: a brand new R200 note.
Mr Hare has adventures on his way into town to meet Mr Mandela!

Mr Hare picked up the note. “What is Mr Leopard doing here?” He turned it around. “Ah! Mr Mandela,” he cried.
His left ear curled up and down as he thought. He looked up at Miss Secretary Bird, who was watching him from a branch in the thorn tree.
“Please call a meeting of all the animals,” he said. “I have an important announcement to make.”
She flew off calling, “Meeting everyone, at the Baobab tree, this morning. Meeting everyone…”
“What is it this time?” everyone wondered, forming a circle under the tree.
Mr Hare stood in the centre. He cleared his throat and began:
“Fellow citizens of the forest, I have important news for you. This,” he said as he waved the R200 note around, “has landed on my doormat. I don’t know what it is or what it means, but it has Mr Mandela’s face on it and so I’m sure it belongs to him…”
“It has my face on it too,” said Mr Leopard with a playful snarl. “So maybe it belongs to me.”
Everyone laughed except for Mr Hare. He was in no mood for jokes.
“I plan to go to the city this very hour to return this important note to Mr Mandela.”
“What?” Mr Buffalo asked, shocked. “You will get lost there.”
