Explore how dialogue has been used in two of Aesop's most-loved fables: in the well-known fable The Mouse and the Lion has been written entirely in dialogue so re-write it with more action and less speech; while in The Hare and the Tortoise a focus on direct speech helps children choose a better word for 'said'.
