In time past, there have been a series of legends about the lion and the mouse, but my story goes thus, Lion King is the most respected and feared king in the history of the animal kingdom. Lion King was always known to live in comfort and luxury all his life. And Lion King was also known for roaring around the forest savannah and jungle just to ensure that everything was going smoothly in the kingdom, and thus it gave him joy deep in his soul. He did this as his weekly routine.

 One cool evening, when the snow seemed to have died down. Lion King invited all the animals in the kingdom and ordered that all must be present. Every animal came at his request.

During the meeting, the king asked if anyone could give him a clever idea on how to build progress in the kingdom. Different animals in the kingdom gave several suggestions such as Tiger, Monkey, and Grasshopper, but none impressed the king until a little mouse brought a clever idea that wowed him. As soon as the king heard the little mouse’s idea, he said “awesome that’s very clever of you little mouse, I will order my noble servants to make sure your idea is executed.”

Aesop's Fables

The Lion and the Mouse

Aesop

‘The Ant and The Grass Hopper’ is a fable that teaches the importance of planning, of self-reliance and hard work. The frolicking grass hopper spends his summer dancing and never working while the ant makes sure to put aside supplies for the coming winter. It is a tale that resonates to this day thanks to its important message of the importance of hard work as well as having fun. It is great reading for all ages on the importance of being able to plan and support yourself.

Aesop's fables feature animals, legendary creatures, plants, inanimate objects, or forces of nature that speak, solve problems, and generally have human characteristics. All the stories story lead to a particular moral lesson. 

Aesop (620-564 BCE) was a Greek story teller and fabulist who’s collection of fables continue to resonate and be taught to this day. His work is characterised by animals and inanimate objects with distinctly human traits, that speak and solve problems. None of his original work survives to this day, it is thanks to his popularity that his works survive in sources from Aristotle, Plutarch and Herodotus. Little is known about him but ancient stories describe him as an exceptionally ugly slave who, thanks to his cleverness, acquired his freedom, becoming an advisor to Kings and city-states.

The Shepherd's Boy and the Wolf

One sunny day in the season of summer, Anter the ant was going about his daily business throughout the forest. It was still morning. The sun he knew was going to get hotter than it currently was throughout midday. He often went throughout the forest to get food to eat. His favorite foods to eat were strawberries, sugarcane, bread crumbs, mangos, and anything that was sweet and delicious that could be eaten.

Luck was on his side today, as he saw a field with some freshly cut sugarcane. He just liked the sweet taste of it. He knew that the men in the forest and village liked the taste of sugarcane. He knew that it also gave them a lot of energy. As a small ant that was always busy storing up food for a storm, a rainy day, or even a hurricane, he needed lots of energy. He went by the field and started to eat in peace and joy.
