- For example, “The Boy Who Cried Wolf” can be explained like this:
- There was a boy who watched sheep. He yelled “Wolf!” three times because he thought it was funny when all the people from his village came out to see. Then no one believed him any more, and when a real wolf came it ate all the sheep.

- The writer is known all over the world (like Aesop).
- People travel and tell the stories in other places.
- People have similar problems and similar solutions in many different cultures, and they tell stories about them.
