Watched this when I was kid. Now I'm 36 and I'm watching it with my 6 year old. Thank you so much!!

My kids loved watching this ...30 years ago. Thanks for posting! Now my grandkids can watch.

I had this on VHS when I was a kid. I must have watched it 50 times as a child. I'm glad I was able to watch it on here since it doesn't seem to be available on DVD

Bro...I used to watch this in India when I was young ...20-25 years ago..I had the urge to look it up...wow

I still have this on VHS tape. I found it mixed in with some old home movies I was transferring to dvds last week. Talk about a blast from the past! It still played pretty good too.

Omg, I watched this so much the tape wore out. I still know it verbatim and can sing along.

oh man this movie was the best during my childhood thank you so much for posting it

I watched this soooo many times on VHS as a kid. Now, my daughter gets to watch it too! Thanks for posting!

Thank you so much for posting this! :') I used to watch this movie all the time when I was a little 5 year old! I'm now 27 and find it strange that I can still remember all the parts after not seeing it in such a long time!! (>∇

Thanks so much for posting this I'm 32 now , God I use to watch this over and over again as a child, never forgot this cartoon, thanks for bring back memories

I love Aesop's Fables! I love them because they teach us a good lesson each. I especially love the morals at the end of each of them. Thank you very much for showing this! From Virginia Clark. ☺❤🐀🐱🐶🐴🐻🌹🍒🍌🌈🌌.

Like many in the comments section, I grew up with this, and probably last saw it when I was about 10 or 11 years old. I got the urge to look this up and am rediscovering this at 38.

memories....wow...it takes me back!

I've been looking for this for YEARS

This was a fun little movie and I enjoyed watching it!

THANK YOU!!! I've been looking for this for years!!!!

I thought that I would never find this. Thank you for uploading this!

I swear to god that I never saw the last 3 minutes of this movie starting from when the spirit of spring wins the contest so I never found out for like 20+ years at least what ever happened to Aesop! I can not BELIEVE that your VHS started skipping at exactly the same point and thought the universe was going to troll me forever and then it fixed! And the ending is so happy he finds his dang mom and gets to marry that flower elf chick! All is right with the world man... all. is. right. at. last.

I remember seeing this movie as a boy but I could never remember the name of it. now I have finally found a piece of my childhood.^^

Given this dub was handled by Peter Fernandez, it's pretty obvious Corrine Orr does some, if not most of the female characters in this. I think the voice of Aesop is Lionel Wilson. This would also the last of Toei's animated features they use to do quite a lot during the 60's and 70's based on classic literature. Others from the early 80's include "Swan Lake" and "Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp".

I watched this like 1000s times as a kid....

I wasn't around when this came out, but when I was younger I remember seeing this a bunch of times, every time it was brought up it was mentioned by one phrase that has been engraved into my brain ever since "Help,wolf's coming!"

I had this on vhs as a kid #goodtimes

my left ear enjoyed this

Ive been looking for this forever. Ever since I was a kid Thank you for posting!

This is a good movie. thank you

My sister and I watched the VHS of this so many times that we wrecked it, and I have been trying to find a replacement since the early 1990s!! Thank you SO much for posting this!

The hell.......i loved this so much when i was a kid,,specially the tortoise and the hare race... :)

Had this on VHS as a kid. Loved it and watched it all the time. Now I'm 28 and my 4yr old watches it!

Holy fuck knuckles i remember this from when i was a little kid. Im 36 going on 37.

i cant believe you found this either i used to watch this when i was a child and had it on vhs :)

I am so happy to finally have found this! watched it as a kid and I've been looking for it for years. Thank you!

I had this movie when I was little, weirdly it was messed up at the end exactly like this one. I use to watch it every day after school. Was like I was 5 years old all over again. Thanks for sharing.

One of my favs from childhood!!!! Thanks for posting!

Omg I so had this on VHS and watched it over and over:) I can't believe I found it on youtube almost thought I would never find it :) love it

Thank you SO MUCH for this!! I'd planned on saving my old VHS for my kids--and then when I was away in college, my mom gave it to Goodwill. I missed this so much.

Aesop's gonna have a lot of explaining to do to his mom about where he's been and his new friends that he's made! His mom will freak when she sees the bigger than normal-sized Country Mouse and she'll be even more surprised if she hears and sees both the Country Mouse and the donkey talk!

I tried to remeber this for so long. Can't believe I found it. Forgot basically everything but this jogged my memories. Thank you!

Time machine!

I only wished it could've been a bit longer so that there could've been an epilogue or an extra scene that shows what happened to Aesop and his new friends after returning to Aesop's home! By the time the movie ended, it became quite clear that Aesop and that girl had a relationship going. As for the Country Mouse and the donkey, Aesop would have to slowly and carefully introduce them, too, to his mom and then after awhile, have them reveal that they could talk and think like humans and tell their side of the story, where they came from and how they joined Aesop on his journey to return home!

omg I watched this too when I was a kid too! thanks for uploading! :)

Intro animation reminds me so much of Totoro. Watch and compare. Very similar.

AHHH FINALLY FOUND IT

Im 36 years old and I remember this when I was about 5, thanks :)

Wow, I haven't seen this since I was 3 in 1988! I'm amazed how much I remember even though it's been so long!

100% Thank You!

I have a play on Wednesday that is based on Aesop's Fables and this helped a lot

"Now it's my un-favorite!"

oh man cant believe you found this. . . been wanting to watch this since forever but since i was a kid back then i forgot the title . . . great job man

Wow i forgot all about this movie lol

THE EYES!

28:32 oh my god, the turtle sounds like Bernie Sanders...

I'm 32 as well and wow! Found it! Freaking nostalgic 😊💙 (Haw Hee!!!)

....U know, I wonder how something as morally educational such as this turned into Caillou nowadays....

Boyyyyyyy I was about ready to hunt this down on eBay

How can I get a copy of this! I cant find it for sale anywhere!

I remember this as a child as well...Was this a series that was condensed into a movie? just seems like a lot of stuff happens in a compressed timeframe and then suddenly the fairy(edit:sorry Flower Elf) is turned human at the end, which didn't seem to be indicated until then as something she wanted LOL.

I have looked for this version forever. The old vhs I have wont play in my vcr anymore. It amazes me that in this internet based world I couldnt find it anywhere to buy. Anyway you could possibly share the file for download?

I wonder if he does when the wolf lands above him

Love

Cute

excellent , however is anyone else getting an annoying ticking throughout the entire movie?????

Tenkiyu

Toei Animation... no shit?!?! Lol that is nuts.

I spent k-12 at Sears

You better not by lying!

Someone knows if there's a spanish or latin version on the internet? I've searching for it a lot of time :(

What are other books that are similar to Aesop's fables?

I don't want to say this sucked. Bit it certainly picked up more debris than a brand new Shop-Vac! My kids love animals and they adore cartoons...tey both got up and went to their bedroom about 15 minutes in...nothing against anyone wjo did enjoy this but...there is no accounting for taste.
