I'm writing a fable but I'm stuck for ideas. I like the morals don't judge a book by its cover and man is what he believes. I cant think of anything else but the story has to have animals as the characters. I can't get help from my teacher as we got this homework today and it is due on Monday.

How about writing about an animal (a dog?) that looks fierce, but is really gentle? Or a dog that looks like a wimp but is really fierce?
