Introduction to Fables
What are Fables?
Fables are short stories that teach a moral or lesson, often using animals, plants,
or mythical creatures as characters. These characters usually behave and speak
like humans to make the lesson easier to understand.

Why do we read and write Fables?


To Learn Moral Lessons: Fables teach important lessons about how to behave or
make decisions in life.
To Improve Creativity: Writing fables helps us use our imagination by creating
unique characters and settings.
To Understand Human Nature: Fables often reflect real-life behaviors and
problems, allowing readers to think about their own actions.

How to write your Fables?


1. Choose a Moral: Start by deciding what lesson or moral you want to teach.
2. Create Animal Characters: Pick animals or other creatures that represent
human traits (e.g., a wise owl, a sly fox).
3. Develop a Simple Plot: Your story should have a clear beginning, middle, and
end.
4. Show Consequences: Make sure your characters face consequences for their
actions, leading to the moral.
5. Keep It Short: Fables are usually brief, so get straight to the point.

Reading Comprehension 1
The Wind and The Sun
For eons, the Wind and the Sun had been bitter rivals. Each believed
themselves the stronger. Each believed themselves the mightier. Each
believed themselves more capable of imposing their will upon the
Earth.
One day, a traveller was walking
along a well-worn path, wearing a
thick woollen cloak and scarf upon
her shoulders. The flowers danced in
the meadows either side of the road
and the birds sang their sweet
melodies in the oak and willow trees.
These sights and sounds soothed her
weary soul as she trudged along the
road, her feet aching and her back
hunched.

The Wind looked down upon the traveller and said, “Sun, old friend, I propose a
competition, so that we might decide, once and for all, who of us is truly the
mightiest. Look at that human walking below. Do you see how she is wrapped tight
in her woollen cloak? They are so fragile, these mortals, these humans, are they not?
Well, whoever of us can remove that cloak off her shoulders shall be declared the
winner. What say you, Sun?”

The Sun replied, “Wind, must we? Leave this poor creature alone. Humans are so
feeble and fragile. Their lives are short and full of suffering. Leave her be, Wind;
human life is hard enough.”

“Oh, I see, Sun; you are scared - a coward!” The Wind responded smugly. “Well then,
I propose a new competition. If you can take that cloak off the traveller, then not
only will you be declared the mightier, but I will let her travel safely. If I win, I will
be declared the mightiest, and I shall blow her town to the ground. What say you?”

The Sun frowned and sighed. “Very well, you first.”

“With pleasure!” the Wind smirked. The Wind blew upon the traveller, but she
wrapped the cloak tighter around herself. The Wind blew harder, and the traveller
wrapped the cloak tighter around herself. The Wind blew harder and colder, so much
Page 25 of 55

that the traveller shivered and struggled to stand, but she found a tree, sat beneath
it, and wrapped the cloak around her tighter. “AHHHHH! It is impossible!” The Wind
bellowed.

“Maybe…” smiled the Sun, “Maybe not.” The Sun gently shone a bit brighter, making
the air warm and pleasant and balmy. The traveller stood up, stretched, and smiled.
She took off her cloak, and lay contentedly on the lush green grass, happy to delay
her journey to enjoy the balmy sunshine.

“Well done, Sun, you are victorious,” the Wind said, “Well done indeed.” Later, the
traveller continued on her way to Manchester, reuniting with those she loved.

Reading Comprehension 2
The Kid and the Wolf

Once upon a time, there was a billy goat Kid who lived with his
Mother on a farm. Each morning he and the other goats were herded into
a meadow. And each evening they were driven home again.

At the edge of the field was a wood. The grass grew thick and sweet
there because the goats never went near it. The Kid looked at it longingly.
“Don’t go there,” the other goats warned him. “A big bad Wolf lives in
that wood.” “Yes, mind you stay close by me,” said his Mother.

At first the Kid stayed close by his Mother. But with each day that
passed his horns grew bigger. “I am not a little Kid anymore,” he
thought. “I can look after myself. Anyway, I don’t believe a Wolf lives in
that wood.” He went to where the juiciest grass grew. The goats shook
their heads when they saw where the Kid was. “Baaa. Silly young thing,”
they said. “Well, we warned him.”

The little Kid was very happy. He picked up some of the sweet grass.
He was so busy eating that he didn’t hear his Mother call him.

He didn’t even notice the dogs rounding up the goats to drive them
home. “Oh, I do hope my little Goat is safe,” his mother said as they were
herded out of the field.

At last the Kid had had enough. He lifted up his head. The goats had

gone. He was all alone.

Long shadows crept towards him. It was growing dark. The Kid did
not feel so big and brave any more. “Mother,” he bleated, running up and
down the field. “Where are you? I want to go home.”

But someone heard him. Big yellow eyes followed the Kid, as he ran up

Page 29 of 55
Cairo British Collage CBC
English Department
Year 5

and down the field. It was the Wolf. He couldn’t believe his luck. “It’s
time for my dinner and that Kid will do nicely,” he smiled.

And with a single bound he was out of the wood. The Kid tried to run
away, but the wolf put out a paw. “Whoa!” he said. “Not so fast!” He
smacked his lips.

“If only I had listened to Mother,” thought the Kid. “What shall I do?
How can I stop the wolf from eating me? Help! Help!” He bleated, as
loudly as he could. But the dogs and goats couldn’t hear him.

The wolf growled, showing sharp yellow teeth. Then the Kid had an
idea. “If I can get the Wolf to sing, maybe Mother will hear him and save
me,” he thought. “Mr. Wolf,” he squeaked. “I’m sure you have a beautiful
voice. Will you

sing for me? And I will dance for you. I like dancing.” The Wolf
considered. “Why not?” he thought. “A little music before dinner.” He
opened his mouth to sing.

Down the lane the dogs and goats also heard the Wolf. They stopped
and looked at each other. ‘It’s the Wolf!’ one of the dogs cried. ‘Oh, please
– save my little goat!’ cried the Kid’s Mother.

The dogs tore back into the field barking loudly. The Wolf turned his
head and saw them. He leapt for the trees just as one of the dogs was
about to seize his tail.

Moral: Intelligence and bravery can defeat even the strongest enemy.
