Like the mediebal (Everyman) often writers dealing with expendable characters sought like modern accident acutuaries ( 40% more likely to have a fatal crash ) used anonymity as a sort of shielding device. Characters who are expended in stories usually have no name and only the barest minimum of physical description, a similar case of what the French call (Un Heros anonyme) or rather heroine can be found in the case of the Little Match Girl, all of the focus is on her predicament, she is evidentally beyond conversation or communications. There are two cases of expendable solitary characters- anonymous. On the other hand Peter and the Wolf is a sort of operetta about a young man (we know his name is Peter) and his encounter with a Wolf which evidentally comes out okay for Pete, if not the animal, he is seen wearing an army-pattern garrison hat and carrying a gun afield Maybe his old man was game warden. The music was by Prokokiev the noted Russian composer who also gave us(March of the Kings) that fine Epiphany, but the cry-wolf boy, like the Little Match Girl- is nameless.

His name was Pedro/pablo
Peter, Andy, Pisat, Makaly.

In the fairy tale, aShepard boy is bored by watching his sheep. To entertain himself, he cries out that their is a wolf approaching. The townspeople run out to drive off the wolf, but find that their isn't one and that the boy was lying. This happens several more times, until a REAL wolf appears. The boy cries out that their is a wolf, but the townspeople don't believe him, thinking him to be lying again. Depending on the version, the wolf either eats all the sheep, or eats the boy.

The moral of the story is that someone who lies a lot becomes more and more difficult to believe, and in the end this could mean that when they are really in trouble, no one will help.

The Boy Who Cried Wolf is one the ancient fables attributed to Aesop. No manuscripts by Aesop exist and there are many versions of "Aesop's fables."
