    Tomorrow when the war began Review Tomorrow when the war began is an Australian film based off of the popular series of novels written by John Marsden. Despite the film having a relatively simple story the film was still quite enjoyable. I felt the real let down was some of the acting. To be fair majority of the actors weren’t particularly experienced. I feel as if a few actors had been swapped around the film may have been more enjoyable. An example of one of the “let down’ actors was Chris Pang

    Reading Fables and Short Stories Fables‚ parables and short stories all tell a story and all try to relay a meaningful message or moral. Fables tend to be shorter‚ use animals and clearly state the moral the author is trying to portray. Parables also tell a story and portray a message‚ but it basically illustrates a moral or religious lesson. Therefore‚ I guess it is safe to say that all parables can be fables but not all fables can be a parable. Short stories however tend to be a lot longer
