“A lion and a mouse can be friends.”

This book is a collection of short tales of animals that embody human traits. Each story contains a moral lesson, and themes of friendship, honesty, and consequences.

After reading this book, students can discuss the morals of each story and reflect on how these lessons apply to their own lives.

“Wishes, on their way to coming true, will not be rushed.“

I find it neat that there are lots of stories all in one book!

Each page in the book is a new story. This would be good to break up and read one page daily. If the students are reading it on their own, I would recommend this book for older grades because it has lots of words on each page.

Review-Fables by Arnold Lobel,1981, is a collection of short stories. The theme of each fable is cleverly developed through both text and illustrations. The illustrations in detail help the reader's understanding of the fables' morals.
Blurb-I would use this book in a lesson on morals, asking students to tell me the lesson in each fable.
Quote-“The whole world is filled with things you don‘t understand, but that is why it‘s so interesting.“

Fables written by Arnold Lobel in 1980 is a great book that contains series of fables inside. This book has wont he Caldecott award! Great reads for children learning about fables!

Review: Fables by Arnold Lobel, 1980 is a traditional storybook that is a collection of 20 fables all combined in one book. Each is a page and tells a silly story of fictional characters.
Blurb: It's a great book to do a unit on fables, each story could be read at a different time instead of all in one day and the children could pick their favorite one and go further in depth with it.
Quote: “They found one, and it took them safely to the pond.“

This TL book was awarded the Caldecott Honor and would be a great addition to any 3rd-5th grade classroom. This book is comprised of 20 different short fables that are fun and interesting to read. Each one teaches a different “lesson” and for that reason it would be best RA in the classroom.

I deserve this respect from my people, for truly I am every inch a king!

I like this book because at the end of each story it tells the meaning behind it.

Caldecott and was written in 1980. This book isnt one story or telling different views. The book has many different short stories that tell tales. The characters in these stories are only animals, but they do talk. The illustrations of this book are beautiful and colorful.

This book is full of a bunch of different little short stories.
