Though it is just illustrations they are very moving and tell the whole story I would use this in a classroom to work on story telling.

pickThe Lion & the Mouse by Jerry Pinkney published in 2009. This Aesop‘s fable describes a friendship that emerges peculiarly. A rowdy mouse was up the lion from this slumber but decides though let the mouse free. Later when the lion needs a favor after being stuck in a poacher‘s net, the mouse is the one to set him free.
Notice the beautiful illustrations and attention to detail by Jan Brett
I am not too sure how I would choose to implement this into my classroom, but I do know that I would keep it in my classroom library for students to peruse at their leisure or would use it for a group read aloud with my students.
pickThe book Town Mouse Country Mouse by Jan Brett is in the traditional literature genre. The colorful and lush greenery of the illustrations bring the story to life as if the two mouse couples were leaping off of the page. The book tells the story of the two couples that want to escape their everyday lives and whisk off to a getaway in the opposite mouses lives either the country or the town.
I would use this fable in my classroom to teach students about the importance of taking their time while doing their work and kind of use it as a learning moment.
I gave it a go creating a #shelfie on #fable and I have to admit that the result is pretty cute. And also fairly accurate...
Does anyone use Fable for anything other than this? What are some cool features I should be checking out?
I already have 3 book apps on my phone, I'm really not planning on keeping a fourth one unless it adds something new.
Okay, I saw a few #shelfies and I had to see what mine would be on #fable. I did my favorite reads of the year.
I couldn‘t get the whole thing to fit but it said: Vampires, cursed princes, and magic? Subtle is not in your vocabulary. Claim it-your taste is a confident, irresistible dive into fantasy‘s dark allure.
YUP!
