The Fox and the Crow A Fox once saw a Crow fly off with a piece of cheese in its beak and settle on a branch of a tree. “That’s for me,” said the Fox, and he walked up to the foot of the tree. “Good day, Mistress Crow,” he cried. “How well you are looking today: how glossy your feathers; how bright your eyes. I feel sure your voice must surpass that of other birds, just as your figure does. Let me hear but one song from you that I may greet you as the Queen of Birds.” The Crow lifted up her head and began to caw her best, but the moment she opened her mouth the piece of cheese fell to the ground, only to be snapped up by the Fox. “That will do,” said he. “That was all I wanted.

Usually, but not always, fables are stories about animals that talk like people. The lesson that a fable teaches us is called a moral. It’s not hard to find the morals in the fables in this book. They are written in italics (slanted letters) at the bottom of the fables. Aesop is believed to have been a Greek slave who made up these stories to make his life easier. Nobody is really sure if Aesop made up these fables. What is certain, however, is that the stories called Aesop’s Fables are so 8 wonderful that they have been told over and over again for thousands of years. Many common sayings come from Aesop’s Fables: “Don’t count your chickens before they hatch,” and “Honesty is the best policy,” and “Look before you leap” are familiar examples. Whether a Greek slave named Aesop made up these stories or whether many people living at different times made up the stories is not important. What’s important is that the stories have survived and are worth re-telling. Adobe Systems is proud to present them in the newest form of story-telling: the Acrobat electronic book. 9 LIST OF FABLES by title The Wolf and the Lamb 14 The Frogs Desiring a King 30 The Dog and the Shadow 15 The Mountains in Labor 32 The Lion’s Share 16 The Hares and the Frogs 33 The Wolf and the Crane 18 The Wolf and the Kid 34 The Man and the Serpent 20 The Woodman and the Serpent 35 The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse 21 The Bald Man and the Fly 36 The Fox and the Crow 23 The Fox and the Stork 37 The Sick Lion 24 The Fox and the Mask 39 The Ass and the Lapdog 25 The Jay and the Peacock 40 The Lion and the Mouse 27 The Frog and the Ox 41 The Swallow and the Androcles and the Lion 43 Other Birds 29 continued . 10 The Bat, the Birds, The Ant and the and the Beasts 45 Grasshopper 61 The Hart and the Hunter 47 The Tree and the Reed 63 The Serpent and the File 48 The Fox and the Cat 64 The Man and the Wood 49 The Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing 66 The Dog and the Wolf 50 The Dog in the Manger 67 The Belly and the Members 52 The Man and the Wooden God 68 The Hart in the Ox-Stall 54 The Fisher 69 The Fox and the Grapes 55 The Shepherd’s Boy 70 The Horse, Hunter, and Stag 56 The Young Thief and His Mother 72 The Peacock and Hera 58 The Man and His Two Wives 74 The Fox and the Lion 59 The Nurse and the Wolf 76 The Lion and the Statue 60 continued . 11 The Tortoise and The Laborer and the the Birds 78 Nightingale 92 The Two Crabs 79 The Fox, the Rooster, and the Dog 94 The Ass in the Lion’s Skin 80 The Wind and the Sun 96 The Two Fellows and the Bear 81 Hercules and the Wagoneer 97 The Two Pots 83 The Man, the Boy, and the Donkey 98 The Four Oxen and the Lion 84 The Miser and His Gold 100 The Fisher and the The Fox and Little Fish 85 the Mosquitoes 101 Avaricious and Envious 86 The Fox without a Tail 102 The Crow and the Pitcher 87 The One-Eyed Doe 104 The Man and the Satyr 89 Belling the Cat 105 The Goose with the The Hare and the Tortoise 107 Golden Eggs 91 continued .

A Printed Great Britain by BovvERiNG & Co., St. Andrev.'s Printing Works, George Street, Plymouth. PREFACE RILOFF is such a remarkable figure in Russian literature, and his Fables are so interesting and admirable that I have ventured to render eighty-six of them into English. No prose translation can do this poet-fabulist justice, but a rendering in metrical fonns, corresponding with his own, may give readers some idea of his merits. If it be recalled that the source of most fables is hidden in the mists of antiquity, then Kriloff 's originality can scarcely fail to be a recommendation. He wrote, in all, 201 fables and there seems little doubt that, in four-fifths of them, he was not indebted to anyone.

The Race of the Tortoise and the Hare Katie will invite the audience to participate by cheering for the Tortoise and the Hare. This is Aesop’s fable about a fast Hare (rabbit) who liked to make fun of a slow Tortoise. Set in Florida, down at the beach, all the animals are Florida wildlife including Gopher Tortoise. Tired of being teased about his slow pace, Tortoise challenges Hare to a race, with all the nearby animals to cheer them on. Once the race begins, Hare is so sure he will win the race, he stops for a snack, and then for a nap. Meanwhile Tortoise keeps going, keeping his eye on the finish line and letting nothing distract him. Just before Tortoise is about to finish the race, Hare wakes up and with a burst of speed tries to beat Tortoise. But he is too late! Tortoise wins the race. The moral of the story is: Slow and steady wins the race.

  • Year 2: Quarter 2
    Catholic SchoolhouseTM Dialectic Level Tutor Guide Year 2: Quarter 2 by Kathy Rabideau Quarter 2 Background Information Language Arts (Literature): Aesop’s Fables— Setting: The fables attributed to Aesop were actually composed over the course of many centuries. Aesop is a semi legendary figure, about whom various stories have been told. All that can be known with any certainty about Aesop is that he was a Phrygian slave who was later freed by his Greek master because of the wit and charm of his stories. All other details about Aesop’s life appear to have been invented after his death. Aesop’s Fables—Plot: As mentioned, Aesop was a slave in ancient Greece. He was a keen observer of both animals and people. Most of the characters in his stories are animals, some of which take on human characteristic and are personified in ways of speech and emotions. However, the majority of his character retain their animalistic qualities; tortoise are slow, hares are quick, tigers eat bird, etc. Aesop uses these qualities and natural tendencies of animals to focus on human traits and wisdom. Each fable has an accompanying moral to be learned from the tale. Religion: Aesop’s Fables—Summary: Each week, you will read and discuss multiple fables using Aesop’s Fables. (Use: https://books.google.com/ books?id=UO0pAQAAMAAJ ) 1. Read the fables one by one. (Do not read the moral listed in the fable until after they have thought of a moral in their own words.) 2. Have the students put the moral in their own words (no more than one sentence in length—see example ideas in parentheses in your weekly plans.
