Well, in many English fable stories, like 'The Ant and the Grasshopper', the moral is about hard work and preparation.

Take 'Mulan' for example. The moral is about courage and family loyalty. Mulan risks her life for her father and her country. In 'The Little Mermaid', there are lessons about sacrifice and the consequences of making hasty decisions. The mermaid sacrifices her voice for a chance to be with the prince but faces many difficulties. Also, in stories like 'Snow White' and 'Cinderella', there is a sense of justice as the bad characters are punished in the end for their wrongdoings.

In 'The Tortoise and the Hare', the moral is that consistency and perseverance are more important than natural talent. Just like the slow - moving tortoise wins over the overconfident hare.

The story of Joseph teaches forgiveness. Despite being wronged by his brothers, Joseph forgave them.

Another moral lesson is about unity. In stories where a group of animals or people are stronger together but are defeated when they are divided, it emphasizes that we should stay united. For instance, when a flock of birds is able to drive away a predator when they work together, but are picked off one by one when they scatter. This is a powerful lesson for all of us to remember in various aspects of life.

In 'The Ugly Duckling' story, the moral is about self - acceptance. The ugly duckling was different from others and was bullied at first. But it turned out to be a beautiful swan in the end. This shows that we should not judge by appearances and also accept ourselves as we are.
