Arnold Lobel ranks right up there with Dorothy Parker Arnold Lobel ranks right up there with Dorothy Parker for one-liners and I am so pleased that kids have this range of books to displace all the inferior offerings out there on the shelves. 3 year old loves it, always laughs when I explain the moral at the end of each story and waits with bated breath for the punchline. 1 year old loves the drawings. The perfect package for witty babies.. fun and short iBeth I like these fables. They are unpredictable, entertaining, and short! My 3yo doesn't seem to enjoy them as much as I do, perhaps because they are so short.
