James Thurber Satire

One of the stories i liked the most was The Little Girl and The Wolf. I liked this story because it was a funny spin off of little red riding hood and had a modern twist to the entire story. The other story I liked the most was The Bear. I liked The Bear because it was ironic in the sense that gulooting made him make the same mistakes as being drunk. What Surprised me about all the stories was how modern the stories sounded but still had the elements of a fable. Thurber was making fun of modern day political issues. Like in The Little Girl and The Wolf using a well known story and ending with over use of guns.
