Fables are short, fictional stories that usually have animals as characters. Fables were written in order to convey a good moral to both adults and children.
Fables were written to teach moral lessons or impart wisdom in an engaging and memorable way. They often use animals or other characters to illustrate these moral lessons in a simple and accessible manner.
Most of the time it is to teach people lessons.
Usually fables have a moral to be passed on to the reader and hopefully both young and older readers will benefit from these.
