Lit- reading maxim moral

The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing

If you think wisely then you will always get what you want. Obviously the sheep and the wolf do not get along to well.
Also another meaning is that your appearances may not be true and may trick sometimes. This is the maxim of this moral because the wolf was hungry and desperate that he would do anything to eat the sheep.


The Four Oxen and the Lion

This moral was very interesting because it reminds me of ancient rome. When the roman army started to separate to control the invaders, the invaders started attacking soon enough the empire started to get smaller and smaller. This maxim of this story is to always be united and never separate.

The Fisher and the Little Fish

The maxim of this story is that never let go when you have something good. This is the maxim of this story because when you let go of the fish you might not ever see the fish again and you won't have a good meal.

The maxim is the story is that even though little things may seem no change but a lot of little things can make a big impact. This is the moral because the crow knew that little by little and get water for him.

The Fox and the Goat


The maxim of this story is that never believe in somebody that is in trouble. This is the maxim because the fox tricked the goat allowing the fox the get out of the well.

wooden bowls reading


When I was done reading this story " The Wooden bowls", I thought it was related to empathy because when the little boy told that when his father and mother were old the father and mother realized that they were going to be like him and his son was going to treat him like what he did to his grandfather. So they had empathy so they let the grandfather go back to the family table. This story teaches that always have to put yourself in other's shoes. This is what I thought about this story.
