Enjoyable Fables


Introduction to Fable:
A fable is a very short story which is meant to illustrate a point or teach us a lesson. Usually fables are stories about animals that talk like people. The lesson that a fable teaches us is called a moral.
As you journey through this Webquest, you will learn to how create your very own fable, and hopefully you will be able to teach your readers an important lesson!



Fables

Purpose:

A fable sets out to teach the reader or listener a lesson they should learn about life. The narrative drives towards the closing moral statement, the fable’s theme: the early bird gets the worm, where there’s a will there’s a way, work hard and always plan ahead for lean times, charity is a virtue. The clear presence of a moral distinguishes fables from other folk tales.
