 Fairy Tales

Fairy Tales usually tells a story of characters such as

peasants, witches, and royalty, and are set in places
such as castles, villages, and forests. Usually they
feature good characters against evil ones.
 Legends

Legends are stories about events that happened in the

distant past. Often it is not clear if the characters really
existed or if the events really took place.
Legends have often had embllishment over the years as
they are retold. Their original authors may not be known
because many people had a hand in shaping the stories
over time.

 Folktales

A Folktale is a story passed on verbally and not recorded

in writing. Therefore it is often partly modified by
consecutive retellings before being written down or
recorded. Folktale includes legends, fabels and fairytales.
Many folktales involve mythical beings and magical
transformations.

SIMPLE SENTENCE
A sentence is a word group with two main parts-a subject and a
predicate. The subject, which usually comes first, names someone or
something. The predicate, which usually follows the subject, tells what
the subject does, has or is, what is done to it, or where it is.
