James Thurber satire

I liked The Unicorn in the Garden, The Little Girl and the Wolf, and The Princess and the Tin Box.

     I liked The Unicorn in the Garden because it has one of the funniest little twists in a story ever, It plays against the wife instead of the husband, who understood how to get rid of his wife. I think it also is a good lessoon to teach you to think before you say something ridicious.  I'm not exactly sure his aim is to satirize anything in the story, except the concept of mythical creatures and marriage perhaps.  It's an interesting story.
     I liked The Little Girl and the Wolf, because it is extremely satirical to the original fable.  The little girl now, is much more aware of her surroundings than the easily fooled girl of the past, she knows that story and isn't the same timid, and foolish archtype she used to be. I find the story very refreshing and hilarious.
     I liked The Princess and the Tin Box because Mr. Thurber is very dryly hilarious in explaining this story.  He makes it very real, and he builds the story up so that you'll think that the Princess will pick the Tin box, when in fact, she acts logically and chooses the really nice jewlery box that is the most useful to her.  Basically he twists the story the way it would probably work out to be in the real world.
