    You can compare contrast many elements of folk tales because there are many similar themes found in folktales across the world. Some common comparisons (from an elementary teacher's perspective) are:

  2. animals play an important part
  3. animals can talk
  4. they represent characteristic types
  5. the language is simple and straightforward
  6. the story itself is simple and straightforward
  7. there is sometimes a moral in the story
