Aesop and his Fables

Aesop was an ancient Greek storyteller who lived a long, long time ago. He was also a slave. He lived in ancient Rome, in the home of a wealthy Roman family. Legend says … Aesop’s Roman master was so delighted with Aesop’s fables that he granted Aesop his freedom! Aesop’s Fables

. Like all Folktales Aesop did not write down his fables. But, after his death, people did write down every fable they could remember. Over the centuries, Aesop's fables have been rewritten and illustrated and translated into nearly every language in the world. Aesop’s Fables

Today, we still enjoy these wonderful stories created over 2,500 years ago! Each is a very short story, and each has a moral. Which means it teaches us a lesson. Like this one … Aesop’s Fables

One day, a fox fell down a well. He tried to climb out, but the well was too deep. A goat wandered by. He peered down curiously. “What are you doing in a well?” asked the goat. The Fox and the Goat

“I’m warning you, goat,” snarled the fox. “This is my water! Go away.” “You can’t keep all the water for yourself,” the goat snorted. The goat jumped in the well. The Fox and the Goat

The fox jumped on the goat’s back and leaped out of the well. He ran off without a care for the goat who was stuck in the well. The Moral of This Story is: Don’t always believe what you hear from someone in trouble. The Fox and the Goat
