Fable is a literary genre. A fable is a succinct fictional story, in prose or verse, that features animals, mythical creatures, plants, inanimate objects or forces of nature which are anthropomorphized (given human qualities such as verbal communication), and that illustrates or leads to an interpretation of a moral lesson (a "moral"), which may at the end be added explicitly in a pithy maxim.

My parents usually told me a fable every night before go to bed. The most impressive one is the story about the bluebird. It's a symbol of happiness. No matter what color it change into, the happniness is always with us. It taught me to find the happiness in our daily life.
