There are fourteen fables here, running from two to four minutes each. Like its twin, this CD provides a nice musical approach to the stories, "las mejores fábulas de todos los tiempos." They offer good dramatic voices for the characters. A short flute-melody marks the time to turn the page. The understanding of "fable" is broad here, and so the collection includes "El Cultivo del Maíz," "Popul-Vuh," and "The Musicians of Bremen." Stories I cannot recognize include "A Margarita" and "Los Cangrejos." The man who had fallen in love with a cat finds another girl to marry, and they both care for his beloved cat (61).
