a tale is like a short story that mostly is true, or close to true. don't confuse a tale and a fable as a fable is out to prove a point in about life. like the busy ants and the lazy ant. a tall tale is an essay thateveryone knows is not true but read it because it brings a smile and a chuckle to most faces
