Answer:
The reason because of which “The tale of Custard - the Dragon” can be considered more of a fable than ballad as a fable is a fictitious narrative usually with animals, birds etc as characters and shares a strong message whereas a ballad is narrative verse that can be silly or heroic and as the story contains animals as characters and surely has a strong message, it is considered to be a fable.
