The Great James Thurber
22 December 2015
I remember reading this story in middle school. I became enamored with the wonderful wit and insights of James Thurber. I thought "The Night the Bed Fell" to be one of the funniest stories ever written, all under the guise that these were Thurber's relatives. This tale is a short one. We empathize with the husband whose I'll-tempered wife won't listen to him. He sees a unicorn in the garden eating roses and wants so badly to be listened to. When his dreams are crushed, he manages to work things out to his advantage. It reveals a real sense of justice. Thurber's simple drawings still create wonderful personality among his characters. One of the best animations I've seen despite its simplicity.
