The Donkey And The Elephant |
|
Alec, 10,
Pennsylvania |
| The
moral of my fable is: Help others. |
| My
fable is: There was a donkey
and an elephant. They were not the best of friends.
One day a
hunter set a trap...an elephant trap. So the donkey came along and
walked over the elephant trap. He realized the ground felt a bit loose.
He decided to wait and tell the elephant.
Sure enough, the elephant came and
almost walked over the trap, but the donkey stopped him.
Then the elephant said, "You saved my
life." The donkey said, "It's nothing."
A week later a different hunter set a
trap...a donkey trap. The donkey walked over the trap and yelled "Help
I'm falling!"
But sure enough the elephant raced
over and while the donkey was about to hit the ground...
he stopped.
The elephant caught him and pulled him
out. The donkey said, "You saved my life." Then the elephant said, "It's
nothing." |

The Snake And The Mouse |
|
Jodie, 10,
Pennsylvania |
| The
moral of my fable is:
Think before you do something. |
| My
fable is: One day a little
baby mouse was minding his own business getting cheese. The mouse didn't
know it was a trap.
A snake was curled up behind a tree
with its mouth wide open.
Once the mouse saw the snake it ran
right back home dropping all the cheese he had found. The snake was very
mad so he thought he would go home also and think of a way to catch the
mouse.
Meanwhile, the mouse was building a
robotic mouse that looked just like himself. The mouse turned on the
robot and made him go right where the snake was hiding.
But the poor little mouse forgot to
take the sticker off that said made in China. The mouse's plan was
ruined.
The snake was so hungry it sank its
teeth right into the robot mouse without even noticing the sticker. The
mouse cheered as the snake was struggling to get his teeth out.
The rest of the time the mouse was
alive the snake never tried to eat him. |

Ashley, 10,

| The
moral of my fable is: It is fun to make
new friends. |
| My
fable is: My name is Bubbles
and I am a goldfish. My owners John and Jenny always used to
admire my beautiful golden scales.
But then Tony arrived! Tony is a
golden retriever puppy. All John and Jenny
wanted to do was play with Tony.
The day that changed my life forever
was when Tony and I became friends.
It all started when John and Jenny
went to school. Tony came up to my bowl and said, "Want to play?" I
said, "How? I am inside a bowl!" Tony finally said, "I know what we can
play, Rock-Paper-Scissors!"
We played all day long until John and
Jenny came home from school.
John asked me, "Did you have a fun day
with your new friend?" In my mind I was thinking I sure did. |

The Dog And The Horse |
|
Athena, 10,
Pennsylvania |
| The
moral of my fable is: Fighting fire with
fire just makes more fire. |
| My
fable is: There was once two
best friends, a dog and a horse. One day they
got into a huge fight.
The horse got really mad and started a
rumor that the dog had fleas. The rumor spread all around the barn.
Every animal stayed away from the dog.
One day the dog asked, "Why is
everyone avoiding me?" One pig said, "Don't you know you have fleas?"
The dog said, "No, I don't.
If I had fleas I'd be scratching like crazy. Who told you this?"
The pig said, "Your best friend the
horse." The dog got really mad.
So the dog started a rumor that the
horse had hoof fungus. Soon everyone stayed away from the horse. One day
the horse asked, "Why is everyone avoiding me?"
The pig said, "Don't you know you have
hoof fungus?" The horse said, "That's not true. Do I look like I have
foot fungus? Never mind, who told you this?" The pig said, "Your friend
the dog."
The horse got mad so he asked the dog,
"Why did you say that?" The dog said, "To get back at you for what you
said." The dog and the horse both said sorry.
They became best friends. |

fable is: Once upon a time
there were two best friends. Their names were Ben and Chrisy. Ben was a
dog and Chrisy was a cat. They would play everything together like hide
and seek soccer, tag, and even board games.
They would also do their homework
together and study together too.
One day everyone was at school, but
Chrisy wasn't. She had to come late because she had a really bad stomach
ache. When Chrisy got to school, she and Ben met up at her locker. Ben
looked at her, Chrisy said, "What?" Ben said, "Look at what you’re
wearing."
Chrisy said, "What do you mean?" Ben
said, "You’re still wearing your footsy pajamas." Chrisy looked down at
her clothes. Everyone was laughing and taking
pictures.
Chrisy ran and cried. Ben went after
her. Ben found Chrisy outside on the front steps of the school. Ben
said, "It's OK. It doesn't matter what you
look like or what you’re wearing, it just matters if you're being you."
Chrisy said thanks and they both
walked back into school. Everyone was still laughing, but she didn't
care. She just kept Ben's advice in her head. |

Being Nice |

Nadia, 8,
Illinois |
| The
moral of my fable is: Treat Everyone the
way you want to be treated. |
| My
fable is: Once there were
two girls named Vicky and Meghan. Meghan always was mean to Vicky
because Meghan thought that if she was big she could do anything to
little kids.
Vicky was very nice. She listened to
everyone. Vicky got straight A's on her report
card, but Meghan got C's ,D's, or F's.
When Vicky went to the bathroom Meghan
slammed the door and hit it because she wanted to get Vicky in trouble.
Christmas was a month later
and Vicky wanted three things but Meghan
wanted ten.
But when it was Christmas Santa gave
nothing to Meghan other than a note that said,
''Meghan I watched you all year and you behaved rough so you
didn't get presents. Maybe next year if you
listen, then you will get presents.
Sincerely, Santa Claus".
But Vicky got ten presents. Meghan
learned a lesson and she never was mean again. |

The Weight Lifting |
|
Gracin & Anthony, 9,
Georgia |
| The
moral of my fable is: If you don't brag
so much, you just might have more friends. |
| My
fable is: Once upon a time,
there were four animals that lived in a jungle in Australia named Leo
the lion, Jack the kangaroo, Hopper the rabbit, and Shell the turtle.
Leo was a mean,
bragging, strong, fast, and picky lion, while Jack was fast,
strong and fair.
Hopper was a small, fast, but weak
rabbit.
One day Leo found a very messy turtle
that he thought was just a shell. It turned out to be a scared, shy,
little turtle named Shell hiding in its shell.
Then, hopping down the trail was Jack
the kangaroo and Hopper the rabbit.
Since Leo was so strong, he challenged
Shell, Jack, and Hopper to a weight lifting contest.
This challenge scared Shell, and he
tried to run as fast as he could, but he didn't get away in time. Hopper
and Jack were best friends until they had an argument about who was
going to win the weight lifting contest. Everybody was going crazy about
who was going to win the contest.
That night none of the animals could
sleep. The next night everyone was there except Shell. They looked up
the rule for being absent. It said that the person must forfeit.
Finally, Shell showed up at the contest but
couldn't be in it.
Hopper came in first, Leo the bragger
came in third and Jack came in second. |
