Title: Rammie Reads Aesop's Fables
Description: 2005 Rammie Reads Aesop's Fables. DVD. Nine Aesopic fables and several exhortations from Rammie, the mascot of the Derby County Football Club. Ages 4-9. Film Studios, Duffield, UK. £2.99 through Ebay, Nov., '06.

Rammie starts by warning children not to go off with strangers – and finishes by urging them not to run out onto the road between parked cars. In between Rammie tells nine fables in various pastoral settings in the Derbyshire Dales countryside. Some fables may be so animated in their telling that the motivation gets obscured. Does the fox really invite his good friend the stork because he wants others to know his great soup and then decide to make sport of his friend? The mischievous boy in BW is never allowed to have fun again! The video segment turns amateurish in an attempt, for example, to simulate the panic of fearing an approaching wolf. Rammie's big message tends to be "Reading is fun!"
