    My favorite fable is the Boy who cried Wolf. Not for the truth and lesson in the story but because when I was little, my mom told me this fable after I told a lie. I looked as if I was listening intently. When she very seriously asked if I understood, I said “Yes… but if I was that boy, I would have just run into the house.” The things kids say…

  5. Nancy says

    My favorite childhood fable was Jack and the Beanstalk. Already a newsletter subscriber and FB fan. Cheers!

    I remember as a kid going to see Peter and the Wolf by a local Children’s Theater and I have always loved it since. thank you.

    Favorite childhood fable…maybe goldie locks??? Not really sure if I have one but that is the one that comes to mind. Hoping to win!

    As far as childhood fables go….I have always loved the Bee-Keeper and the Bees – its a great story that teaches things are not always as they seem.

  30. Alice Rericha says

    One of my favorite fables was the Little Red Hen- who grows and harvests wheat while the others animals lazily will not help her.

  31. Dan says

    My favorite fable growing up was Jack and the beanstalk…now reading it to my daughter who is almost 4, I change around some of the words that the giant says. . . otherwise, it’s a great tale of triumph at the end 🙂

    • Joan says

      Hansel and Gretel…I always wanted to find a house made out of candy. But, in my mind, there would be a much nicer lady who lived there!

  56. Laura Roland says

    Oh…I thought I was supposed to leave a comment on your Facebook page. I will do so here as well. My favorite fable was the Boy who cried Wolf! And please pick me!! 🙂 I would love to introduce my 3 year old son to the symphony. And we have nothing planned for Saturday! 🙂
