KINDERGARTEN . . . and then what happened?

Did you ever read a story, close the book, and wonder what happened next? Did the characters in the book just live happily ever after or did you wish there were more adventures to read about?

Kindergarteners shared a story as told by Aesop, over 2000 years ago in Greece. Aesop's Fables, a collection of stories featuring animals as the lead characters, teaches us lessons about human life. In the fable, "The Lion and the Mouse," Aesop entertains us with the idea that a small mouse might be able to save a ferocious lion from the trap of hunters. The moral of this story is; "Even the strongest can sometimes use the help of the smallest." 

In our illustrations of this fable, Kindergarteners continued the story that began so many years ago. What happened after the mouse helped the lion? Could they become friends? Here are a few adventures to enjoy...
