The document includes examples of common fable structures, such as "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" and templates for planning a fable. It then provides two sample fables written following the structure of having an opening, event, problem, and ending. The fables teach lessons about the consequences of lying and playing with fire.

Vladmir Propp was a Russian scholar who theorized that fairytales and stories often contain 31 common plot elements that typically occur in a set order, as well as 8 recurring character types such as the hero, villain, and helper. He analyzed the fairytale of Hansel and Gretel and identified the witch as the villain, Hansel and Gretel as the joint heroes who work together to defeat the villain and escape with their lives, and the stepmother as the dispatcher who sends the children into the woods. Todorov developed a theory that narratives typically pass through stages of equilibrium, disequilibrium caused by some event, and a new equilibrium once the problem is resolved.

Fables
Fables are an early form of storytelling that originated in India and were popularized by Aesop, a Greek slave from the 7th century BC. Fables typically feature animals, plants, or forces of nature with human qualities, teach a moral lesson, and reflect the culture in which they were created. For example, Native American fables often featured wolves, which symbolized different traits than foxes represented in European fables. One classic fable is "The Tortoise and the Hare," in which the hare's overconfidence causes him to lose a race to the tortoise who wins through slow and steady effort.

Since then he has written many more including four series : the Pigeon books, Knuffle Bunny, Elephant and Piggie, and Cat the Cat. His series Elephant and Piggie has won the Geiser Award multiple times, and he has also received Caldecott Honors for two of his books. His work has extended from books into other areas of art. Knuffle Bunny was turned into a musical that ran for 18 months, and the pigeon now has his own website and app for smart phones. Currently, he lives in Massachusetts with wife and daughter and is always working on new characters to inspire more books. We can certainly expect more fun and lovable characters to come from Mo in the future. Times says Mo is the best new talent to emerge in the 00’s so far! The pigeon is begging you drive the bus after the bus driver left you in charge. Finally the bus driver comes back and the pigeon is scared and runs away. He moves onto bigger and better dreams... like driving a semi-truck. In the book, the Pigeon find a hot dog. He is met by the duckling. Ducking asks all about the hot dog and what it is like. Finally pigeon give him half. All the pigeon wants to do is stay up late. He is begging you to let him, but you’ve been told not to. Finally while begging he falls asleep. The pigeon wants a puppy and has wanted one for a long time! (in pigeon terms) He tells all about how he would take care of the puppy. Finally he gets to meet a dog, and he changes his mind. This naked mole rat is quite different from his friends. He likes to wear clothes when all of his friends are naked. We see how his community responds to his strange habit. But really, why not? Piggie just got a brand new toy! She can’t wait to show it to her best friend, Gerald, but Gerald is a little too exited about it and breaks it. But there’s little twist to this toy (or snap). Elephant and Piggie discover they are in a book! They are so excited to make you, the reader, say words that they don’t want to stop! They come up with a clever plan, so they won’t have to.Elephant comes to Piggie with a long, crazy story about how he broke his trunk, but it is not what you would expect. By the end of this story, Piggie as one of her own to share. Trixie realizes in this story that she is not the only little girl with a stuffed bunny. A case of mistaken identity awakes the fathers of two very upset little girls, but they are there to save the night! Cat the Cat meets a lot of animal friends in this book, and she loves to tell you who all of them are. When she runs into a rather unique creature she isn’t quite sure how to respond, but in the end she has a new friend! Mo likes us best!
