The Boy Who Cried Wolf

The Boy Who Cried Wolf is one of Aesop's Fables, numbered 210 in the Perry Index. From it is derived the English idiom "to cry wolf", defined as "to give a false alarm" in Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable and glossed by the Oxford English Dictionary as meaning to make false claims, with the result that subsequent true claims are disbelieved.

The fable

The tale concerns a shepherd boy who repeatedly tricks nearby villagers into thinking a wolf is attacking his flock. When one actually does appear and the boy again calls for help, the villagers believe that it is another false alarm and the sheep are eaten by the wolf.

The moral stated at the end of the Greek version is, "this shows how liars are rewarded: even if they tell the truth, no one believes them". It echoes a statement attributed to Aristotle by Diogenes Laërtius in his The Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers, where the sage was asked what those who tell lies gain by it and he answered "that when they speak truth they are not believed".William Caxton similarly closes his version with the remark that "men bileve not lyghtly hym whiche is knowen for a lyer".

Boy Who Cried Wolf (song)

"Boy Who Cried Wolf" is a song by the English band The Style Council which was their twelfth single to be released. It was composed by lead singer Paul Weller, and was released in 1985.

This fable teaches a timeless moral lesson- don't 'cry wolf'! If you play a practical joke on somebody, they won't believe you when something really bad happens; you will lose their trust. The Boy Who Cried Wolf, is a fable that teaches a lesson about lying, using a shepherd boy, his sheep and a wolf to convey a powerful message. In a peaceful village, there was a boy who used to take the sheep out to graze in the meadow. He was so bored that he started to lie about a wolf showing up. The villagers came running to help but were fooled every time. One day, when the wolf actually showed up, no one believed the shepherd boy and he lost all his sheep. The boy learnt his lesson the hard way, that lying can be dangerous as lying regularly will make you untrustworthy and no one trusts a liar.

    The Boy Who Cried Wolf

    The Boy Who Cried Wolf is one of Aesop's Fables, numbered 210 in the Perry Index. From it is derived the English idiom "to cry wolf", defined as "to give a false alarm" in Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable and glossed by the Oxford English Dictionary as meaning to make false claims, with the result that subsequent true claims are disbelieved.

    The fable

    The tale concerns a shepherd boy who repeatedly tricks nearby villagers into thinking a wolf is attacking his flock. When one actually does appear and the boy again calls for help, the villagers believe that it is another false alarm and the sheep are eaten by the wolf.

    The moral stated at the end of the Greek version is, "this shows how liars are rewarded: even if they tell the truth, no one believes them". It echoes a statement attributed to Aristotle by Diogenes Laërtius in his The Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers, where the sage was asked what those who tell lies gain by it and he answered "that when they speak truth they are not believed".William Caxton similarly closes his version with the remark that "men bileve not lyghtly hym whiche is knowen for a lyer".
