Turkey and Owl
Hadley, 11, Wyoming
Moral:   Don't believe every thing your told.
My fable:

One day Turkey was walking along and he met Owl and said, "Mr. Owl are there really poison apples?" gobbled the Turkey.

"NO! Where on earth did you hear that?" hooted the Owl.  Turkey replied efficiently, "Mr. Fox."

The next day Turkey met Owl and asked, "Owl, are there 10 foot tall rabbits?"  "NO! Where did you here that?"

The turkey replied hesitantly, "Mr. Fox," and he dashed away flapping his wings.  
Had I not asked him that, he might not have run away," and he went off flapping his wings.

Then he saw Mr. Fox.  He explained what had happened and the Fox replied, "Oh hum, now I'll think about what I say now," and he proudly trotted off.  Then the Turkey came and said, "What shall I do about Mr. Foxe's tall tales?"

The Owl replied, "I don’t think you will have anymore problems if you quit believing everything you hear."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A Nutty Story
Shaun, 12, Wyoming
Moral:   Don't put off for tomorrow what you can get done today.
My fable:

Once, a squirrel named Nutty was moping while doing his tremendously huge list of chores that just kept on growing.

On the other hand Wally the chipmunk, Nutty’s brother, was running and hurrying as fast as he could so that he could go outside and play before it got dark.  But when Wally went outside to play, Nutty wanted to go outside to play too.  So he decided that he would finish his chores the next day.

The next day came, then the next.  Five days later Nutty still didn't have his chores done.  Then, the next evening, Wally and Nutty’s family got a call stating that they had won a trip to Disney World and their plane would be flying out the next morning.

Nutty and Wally were very excited to go on the trip, but when the family was getting ready to go to the airport, Nutty’s parents told him that his chores had to be done before he could go anywhere.  So Nutty didn't get to go to Disney World with the rest of his family.

The Mouse and The Dog
Cheyna, 13, Wyoming
Moral:   Don't believe everything you are told.
My fable:

The mouse and the dog are two very best friends and go to a school together.  Playing is the number one thing to do on their list.  One day, they saw each other in the hallway.

“Hello Shi Tzu!” squawked the mouse in a rudely stuck up voice.
“Hi Cheesy!” yelped the dog with a friendly voice.
“So proud I am of you!” shrieked Cheesy.
“Proud about what?” Shi Tzu asked questionably.
“You are getting the award for the most friendly in the school and I am getting the award for the most popular!!” bragged the mouse skipping down the hall.
“Oh!” exclaimed the dog, “Cool and thanks for the info!”
“Well, I have to go. I am late for class. See you at the awards tonight!!” laughed Cheesy.
“Okay!” Shi Tzu told him excitingly. So they went to the awards and Cheesy got his award for the most popular.
“Up next, the most friendly in the school award goes to…” announced the award giver while watching Shi Tzu bounce in her chair, “Mrs. Bored O' Collie!”
“What?” thought she to herself. The next day Shi Tzu walked up to Cheesy.
“That was one cool award!” exaggerated Shi Tzu.
“Yeah! To bad you…”
“Good-bye Mr. Cheesy!” interrupted the dog.  From then on they were not friends because one couldn't trust the other.  Cheesy found a new best friend.

The Snail and the Grasshopper
Gracie, 12, Wyoming
Moral:   Don't put off tomorrow what can be done today.
My fable:

One day as Miss Snail was doing her work.  She saw Mr. Grasshopper lounging in the sun.  "Mr. Grasshopper," called the snail, "What are you doing lazily sunbathing?   Don't you know winter is coming soon?  You should be gathering food as I am for you and your family."

"Miss Snail, my actions are not of your concern," the grasshopper answered sharply.  So proud of his reply, Mr. Grasshopper turned back to finish the rest of the day in laxity.

A few weeks later winter was beginning and Miss Snail had a family feast planned.  Before they began to eat, they heard a knock on the door.   Cousin Phil opened the door only to find Mr. Grasshopper kneeling on the front porch.

"Had I listened to Miss Snail, I would have copious amounts of my own food, but instead I put everything off to the next minute!" Grasshopper exclaimed quietly as he collapsed in the doorway.

Phil brought him inside to warm him up and Miss Snail fed him her bean stew and bid him farewell.  Grasshopper padded home with a parcel of herbs under his arm.

The Panda And The Bear
Alicia, 12, California
Moral:   Don't bother others because then you won't be liked!
My fable:

One day an evil Bear and a kind Panda were in the park of "Townsville."  The Bear was an evil, gigantic, ugly Bear.  The Panda was nice, kind, beautiful, and tender.

The bear would always go to the park and harass the vulnerable Panda.  The Panda was sitting down on a swing.  Suddenly, the ugly Bear went up to her and said, "You are the ugliest Panda ever."  Since the Panda was so sensitive, she started to weep.  The poor Panda thought to herself, "I think that the evil Bear wants me to live through a torture chamber."

Days went by and the beautiful Panda never saw the evil Bear again.  The Panda remembered, "I am not fond of this Bear because of the way he treated me."

Baby Pit Bull and Beagle
Richelle, 12, California
Moral:   Don't be someone you are not. ...And don't forget who you are.
My fable:

Baby Pitbull was heading to Dirty City School.  While he was walking, he saw new kids going into school.  Pitbull asked them, "Where did you guys get those clothes?"

"We made them ourselves."  When he got to school, Pitbull told everything to Beagle.  Beagle answered, "The clothes sound cool but, ..."  Pitbull said, "No buts, or anything."  Pitbull started to be mean at school.

The next day, Pitbull left Beagle all alone.  Beagle was lonely.  Pitbull changed the way he dressed to look like the other dogs: gang members!

A week passed. A couple of strange teens confused Baby Pitbull for another gang dog!  He got away unharmed, but he knew that he should never dress like that again.  He should be like his old self and like his friend, Beagle.

The Mouse And The Cat
Stephani, 12, California
Moral: Don't envy anyone unless you've been in his or her shoes.
My fable:

There were once a mouse and a cat who were getting ready to perform in a school play.  The mouse was very nervous because she had the most important role.

The cat had a brilliant idea.  The cat said to the mouse," If you make a mistake everyone will laugh at you and hate you! "

The mouse was so scared that she replied to the cat, "I..... I don't want to be in the play."  And with that, she ran off the stage.  The cat took her place.  The cat now knew how it felt to be both scared and nervous.

From that day on the cat never scared or teased anyone.   The cat found the mouse and said, "I'm very sorry I scared you."   The two became friends.

The Blah Blah Blah 3000
Kari Lynn, 13, Florida
Moral:   If you want something bad enough, try your hardest.
My fable:

Long ago there were two brothers. One was named Billy and one was named Bob. Billy was a hard worker. He made A's on all his assignments. He even built his family a house when his parents died. Bob, however, was very lazy. His day's schedule was to sleep, watch television, and eat. He also loved playing video games with his friend, Hops the frog. Hops was just as lazy as Bob.

One day Billy was cooking dinner and Bob was watching television with Hops. When Mr. Squawk, the advertiser, came on the screen and announced that the newest and coolest phone was out for sale. Bob wanted the phone real bad but Billy wanted it too because he hardly gets anything for himself.

Bob called in and offered to pay a great deal of money. But Mr. Squawk said there was something you had to do to win the phone. "What" said Bob? "You have to build something," said Mr. Squawk. When Billy heard this he began planning on what his carpentry work would be. Bob on the other hand began planning with Hops. But that only lasted two minutes before they both went back to playing video games.

Meanwhile Billy had planned for hours before deciding to build a house. Bob had decided he and Hops would build a shed. For the next couple of weeks Billy worked hard on his house. Bob, however, played in the trees with Hops. One day Billy asked, "Shouldn't you be working on your shed?" "Yeah," said Hops. "But we can do that later. It won't take long," said Bob.

Days passed and Billy's house was better looking day after day. Bob and Hops shed however, looked like a pile of wood. Weeks went by and Hops finally confronted Bob. He said, "Bob we need to get started on our shed if you're going to win the phone." "Fine," said Bob. "We'll start tomorrow." The next day Bob sat inside ordering Hops around on how to build the shed and left Hops to do all the work. Hops got tired of being bossed around and left.

Hops never came back to Bob's house so Bob did the shed by himself. The day of the contest came and Mr. Squawk came to judge the brother's handiwork. After judging, he told the boys he'd give them a squawk (or call) if they won.

Later that day the boys got a call saying that Mr. Squawk will be coming over to give one of them the phone. Bob was so excited because he thought his wood stacked shed had won. Billy couldn't decide whether he was happy or sad. Happy because he won or sad because his brother didn't win and thought he did.

When Mr. Squawk arrived he gave the phone to Billy. Bob was so upset because he wanted the phone for himself. After Mr. Squawk left Billy called Hops over so they could talk to Bob. Hops told him how he was being mean to him and telling him what to do.

Billy told Bob that if he wanted the phone bad enough that he should have stopped being lazy and worked a little harder on his shed. Bob learned a lesson that day and hasn't been lazy since.
