The Mysterious Case of the Disappearing Ducklings [Fable 10]: (From Rufus Rides a Catfish & Other Fables From the Farmstead)

Rufus is a farm cat. As such, his code of ethics drives him to the highest standards of moral character and noble thoughts. This may seem corny to you, but it is a duty he takes quite seriously. The animals and people under his protection benefit from his selfless devotion to this cause, even the dog, whose constant exuberance he finds tiresome. Nonetheless, patience is also one of Rufus' many virtues. He is a warrior, a hunter, a philosopher, a mentor, and a friend. This booklet is Fable 10 plus a student worksheet.
