HELP HELP HELP HELP PLZ ASAP I give medal and fan Read the fable and use supporting evidence from the story to identify its theme. Answer in a minimum of three complete sentences. A Lion asleep in his lair was woken up by a Mouse running over his face. Losing his temper he seized it with his paw and was about to kill it. The Mouse, terrified, piteously entreated him to spare its life. "Please let me go," it cried, "and one day I will repay you for your kindness." The idea of so insignificant a creature ever being able to do anything for him amused the Lion so much that he laughed aloud,
and good-humoredly let it go. But the Mouse's chance came, after all. One day the Lion got entangled in a net which had been spread for game by some hunters, and the Mouse heard and recognized his roars of anger and ran to the spot. Without more ado it set to work to gnaw the ropes with its teeth, and succeeded before long in setting the Lion free. "There!" said the Mouse, "you laughed at me when I promised I would repay you: but now you see, even a Mouse can help a Lion."
Ok well first, what is theme? The definition in your words.
Theme: Is the topic of the story?
@NERD85176
No, theme is the athours message to the reader, so like a morale to the story or something like that, kinda like something the athour wants you to get out of the story or book.
Oh ok
Yup, so what do you think the theme could be???? :))
Hmm
Ok when the lion let the mouse go what was he showing?
That a lion was nice enough to let a little mouse go because the little mouse said that he would re-pay him if he lets him go and doesn't eat him
And then 1 day the lion gets caught and th mouse cut him loose and the lion thanked him
Good, but when the lion let him go he NEVER thought in a million years that something so small and weak could help something big and strong! But then.... just that happened!!! What does that say, or in other words what does the athour want you to know about the lion and the mouse????? :))
That if you do a good deed you will be re payed
Yup, and that just because someone or something is not as big or strong or good at something does not mean that they cant be helpful and wise at times!! :-)
