Aesop's Fables
Aesop's Fables
- The Dog, the Cockerel and the Fox
A cockerel and a dog live on a farm, where they are very good at their respective jobs – waking everyone up in the morning, and letting everyone know when there was someone at the gate.
One day they decide to go on an adventure, although the cockerel needs some reassurance from the dog that it will be protected against foxes.
At sunset they come to a wood, and find a hollow tree. The dog can sleep inside the tree and the cockerel can roost in the branches.
The dog reassures the cockerel that no fox will find him in the tree unless he crows.
However, in the morning the cockerel forgets himself and crows, attracting a fox, who tries to trick the cockerel into letting him up onto the branch. The cockerel tricks the fox in his turn, by saying that his porter will let him in at the bottom of the tree. The porter is, of course, the dog, who scares the fox away.
2.The Lion and the Mouse
A mouse happens upon a sleeping lion in the forest. Unwisely, he climbs up onto the lion and boasts about how mice need not be scared of lazy lions. The lion, by now not asleep, grabs the mouse and prepares to eat it.
The mouse pleads for its life by claiming that one day it will be able to help the lion. The lion, finding this thought ridiculous, lets the mouse go.
The next day, the mouse is indeed able to help the lion, who is trapped in a hunter’s net. The mouse gnaws through the rope to save the lion, who thanks him and praises his bravery.

3.The Fox and the Goat
A fox is running along one day. Not looking where it is going, it falls down a well, and cannot climb out. When a goat sticks its head over the side of the well, and asks the fox what it is doing, the fox realises this is its chance to escape.
Claiming that the water is the best in the world, the fox invites the goat to come down and share it. The goat, feeling thirsty, does so, and enjoys a drink, but then realises that she too can’t climb out. The fox climbs on the goat’s back and manages to get out.
