Story – The Cat, The Rooster and The Young Mouse

I discovered a new-to-me storytelling website. 
Dr. Mike Lockett’s site has a long list of stories, tales, fables and folklore. 
Some are very easy to tell stories and I picked one to tell this week at school.

The Cat, The Rooster and the Young Mouse is an Aesop fable with
the moral ‘Never judge anyone by their looks”.

I decided I wanted a visual so found pictures of each of the animals and cut the cat and the rooster into parts, like a puzzle, to place on the board as I told the story. You'll see how I used them in the following video.


 When I first found the site I was thrilled and instantly ordered two of his CDs.  Now to find the time to listen to them.  Hope you can find time to check out his site and learn a story or two.
