ROD SERLING SAYS…• “Fantasy is the impossible made
probable. Science fiction is the improbable made possible."

FANTASY CRITERIA
• Many works within the genre take place in imaginary worlds where magic and magical creatures are common
• The identifying traits of fantasy are the inclusion of fantastic elements in a self-coherent (internally consistent) setting, where inspiration from mythology and folklore remains a consistent theme.
• Within such a structure, any location of the fantastical element is possible: it may be hidden in, or leak into the apparently real world setting, it may draw the characters into a world with such elements, or it may occur entirely in a fantasy world setting, where such elements are part of the world.
• Essentially, fantasy follows rules of its own making, allowing magic and other fantastic devices to be used and still be internally cohesive.

• FROM THE CRITERIA: Any location of the fantastical element is possible: it may be hidden in, or leak into the apparently real world setting,
• The farm and the fair are the apparently real world settings.
• The fantastical elements include the talking animals and a world that the humans know nothing about.
