If this book wasn’t for you, who do you think might enjoy it more?

Not really sure who would enjoy it more...

What was most disappointing about Rand Whipple’s story?

We were just really disappointed by the modern twist. In reflection we want our children to learn the classics - as classics, as opposed to having a modern twist.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Aesop's Fables?

Anything related to modern times...

Any additional comments?

Rand has a great voice and I am certain he would captivate our children's attention, just wish it was true to original content.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
