For thousands of years, parents and teachers have used memorable stories called fables to teach simple moral lessons to children. In the Aesops Fables by AV2 Animated Storytime series, classic fables are given a lighthearted twist. In The Lion, the Bear, and the Fox, Aesop and his troupe teach their audience that when two creatures fight for a reward, they may both end up losing. The Shorties learn that it is sometimes better to cooperate than to compete.
