Storyline
In this long-running Dutch animation series, Mr. Owl reads from the Fabeltjeskrant (Dutch for "Fables newspaper") it's named after the links between the scenes which show various animals (each has a first name and the species name) who live in a wood in partially stereotypical, partially human-like interaction. Major characters include Mrs. Stork, the self-proclaimed posh de facto-mayor, her sycophantic messenger Zoef the Hare, the brothers Beaver who construct about everything and the ever-scheming Lowieke the Fox; their are many minor ones. Written by KGF Vissers

De fabeltjeskrant is a series about a whole bunch of animals. They were originally stories from the fables by Lafontaine, but they evolved to a series of their own. All the characters have their own little quirks, and they combine into a lively forest which is not unlike our world. As Meneer de Uil says in the intro: Animals are just like people, with the same human wishes, all of this is in the paper, in Fabeltjesland. The animals are all cute and their interaction is often funny, not just for kids, but for grown-ups too. The series actually spawned a new saying, still used today. When children go to sleep, a lot of parents say: oogjes dicht en snaveltjes toe, which means shut your eyes and close your beak. This is the last sentence of each episode.
