Fable 1: The Tortoise and the Hare
A hare was making fun of a tortoise for being so slow. "Do you ever get anywhere?" he asked with a mocking laugh. "Yes," replied the tortoise, "and I get there sooner than you think. I'll run you a race and prove it." The hare agreed, thinking this was a great joke. They started off, and the hare soon left the tortoise far behind. The hare decided to take a nap, thinking he had plenty of time. When he woke up, he saw the tortoise crossing the finish line ahead of him!
Fable 2: The Boy Who Cried Wolf
A shepherd boy was bored while watching his sheep. To have some fun, he cried out, "Wolf! Wolf! A wolf is attacking the sheep!" The villagers came running to help, but there was no wolf. The boy laughed at the trick. A few days later, he did it again. "Wolf! Wolf!" he cried, and again the villagers came running, only to find no wolf. Then one day, a real wolf came. The boy cried, "Wolf! Wolf!" but this time, no one came to help because they thought he was lying again.
