Once upon a time, not so long ago, people could tell stories by mouth and memory. But now, in the modern era, people are more likely to read stories online. Fables are one type of story that can be found online.

A fable is a short story that typically features anthropomorphic animals, magical creatures, or plants. The moral of the story is usually a lesson about life or human nature. Fables of Aesop are a well–known example of this type of story.
