Week 12 Reading Diary, continued



Aesop’s Fables: Part Two
·       The Lion and the Man: This story shows that the lion is quite able to hold a conversation with man, but that does not mean the lion is able to do everything that a human can. In this case, lions cannot create sculptures.
·       The Lion and the Bulls: This story shows the lion is the more devious and treacherous creature, and used the strategy of "divide and conquer" that lead to trouncing the bulls.
·       The Lion and the Goats: In the previous fable, the bulls fell victim to the devious and treacherous lion, but in this fable the goats proved to me a little too wise for the lion.
·       The Lion King: The lion puts everything around him in danger because it confirms that both telling the truth and telling flattering lies are both fatal. Luckily for the lion, it is the fox that controls the situation by finding a solution to the problem at hand.
·       The Lion and the Mouse: In this famous fable, you are able to see a better side of the mighty beast, which we know as the lion.
·       The Wolf and the Lamb: The sheep in this fable is falsely accused by the dog and the wolf, but cannot win the fight against them, even though the gods get involved to offer justice into the situation at hand.
·       An Agreement between the Wolves and the Dogs: The Wolves and the Dogs could not get along, which in return cause havoc. We all know that a house divided cannot stand alone.
