What is the title of the story
What kind of story is it
What is the main idea of the story
The author used this story to impress upon readers the need to take responsibility for problems in the community. The story was quite successful in achieving its purpose, and I liked it because it had a clear moral.
Paragraph 2: Your analysis of the story
What is the author’s purpose
Were the details of the story clear
Do you think the story achieved its purpose
Paragraph 3: Your opinion about the story
However, while the moral of the story is clear, the actions of the king seemed pointless to me, because none of the characters in the story learnt anything. For this reason, I think there are better stories that can be used to impress upon people the need for personal responsibility.
