For this unit I have a lot to choose from for my favorite parts because of reading individual Aesop’s stories. My favorite story was the story of the mouse and the lion. This is the one where the mouse wakes the lion, but convinces him to let him go, and he will repay him. I think it is always nice to be friends with people you wouldn’t normally be friends with. It may not seem like it, but everyone has something useful to bring to a friendship. I think for a story from this I could do a high school setting, where the lion is a senior and has many friends, but one day something goes wrong, and she is left crying in the bathroom. A freshman would come in a see her, and ask if she wanted to talk about what had happened. The lion does not want anyone to know she was crying, so although it is unheard of for a senior to talk to a freshman she decides she wants someone to listen, and they form a friendship. From there on out the senior is very nice to the freshman. One day later on in the year, the senior some trouble finding a dress to wear for prom because all the dresses were so expensive. There is one she wants, but it is way to expensive for her to afford. She was talking to her freshman friend about her dilemma, and her friend told her not to worry about it because she could sew the exact dress she wanted! Then her friend would make her the perfect dress, and her prom would go exactly as she wanted it to. She realized that without her friend, she wouldn’t have even be able to join in on the experience that would soon be remembered as the best night of her life.
