Academy Award-winning actress, director, producer, and activist Natalie Portman talks about her new children’s book, meeting Ann M. Martin as a kid, how books got her through acting and moving as a kid, gender representation in kid’s books and how much of an impact it has on kids at a young age, and more!

Natalie Portman retells three classic fables and imbues them with wit and wisdom. From realizing that there is no “right” way to live to respecting our planet and learning what really makes someone a winner, the messages at the heart of Natalie Portman’s Fables are modern takes on timeless life lessons. Told with a playful, kid-friendly voice and perfectly paired with Janna Mattia’s charming artwork, Portman’s insightful retellings of The Tortoise and the Hare, The Three Little Pigs, and Country Mouse and City Mouse are ideal for reading aloud and are sure to become beloved additions to family libraries.
