Summary from Goodreads:
From realizing that there is no “right” way to live to respecting our planet and learning what really makes someone a winner, the messages at the heart of Natalie Portman’s Fables are modern takes on timeless life lessons.
Told with a playful, kid-friendly voice and perfectly paired with Mattia’s charming artwork, Portman’s insightful retellings of The Tortoise and the Hare, The Three Little Pigs, and Country Mouse and City Mouse are ideal for reading aloud and are sure to become beloved additions to family libraries.
Review:
This was a hilarious read for me. Portman brings my favorite children's stories to life in a new and current way. I think my boys would love reading these, even though they range from 7-13, just because it has that childish poop humor they find so funny. I laughed through the whole book, and wished it was longer with more stories, but of course, we can't have everything. If Natalie Portman writes a second book, I'm totally in.
