Considered as the creation process of the text texture and as the responsible element for the connection between the parts of the text, operation that is realized by links that relate the constituents of the textual materiality, cohesion is concerned with the fact that the reader must pay attention to the relation between such elements in order to understand the text. If language is conceived (as it should be) as a form of interaction between protagonists of the speech, it is in the mechanisms of cohesion used that the image that the author makes of the reader and issues related to the cultural imaginary of a social group may be detected. It is, therefore, from the discursive perspective that this study analyzes textual cohesion resources in fable excerpts with the objective of verifying what kind of representation the fables show in relation to its model reader (a child).
