What is a Fable? A fable is a short narrative that uses animals, plants and other inanimate object as characters to teach valuable lessons in life. *Personification-When an inanimate object or abstraction is given human qualities or abilities. But the most important part in a fable, be it told or written, is the moral lesson that the kids must gain in the end. *Moral-A fictional narrative meant to teach a lesson.
