My favorite was the Tale of Three Brothers because it was in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and I like the way it tells the story of how the one brother fooled death.

I loved Beedle the Bard. Babbity Rabbity and Her Cackling Stump was so sweet yet funny. Though my favorite bit was when Dumbledore talked about the fight between his brother and him over the bedtime stories and why Lucius Malfoy hates him so much. They made me laugh  a lot!

I loved The Warlock's Hairy Heart. It's so gruesome! lol and teaches an important lesson, of course: Do not keep your heart locked away. It may grow hair and eat you from the inside.

Babbity Rabbity for the win!  Who doesn't like a talking stump, eh?

I love the book and Dumbledore's comments, so I really hope they do make a movie of it somehow...but my fav tale is The Three Brothers... I love the moral of the story!

I thought Babbity Rabbity was the most rounded story. It was also the sole story I could see easily developed into a movie or a short.

Hopping Pot... In French like English, it's the best tale of Beedle The Bard.

I read it in one night The Fountain of Fair Fortune is really good it teaches you that no matter what ails you there is always somebody that has worse times than you and that there may be a cure right around the corner that you never knew about.

i think the best one is the warlock's hairy heart
i just love the part just before the ending, and then the very ending. it was so gross, i was just like WOW. also i think it as just because the other stories didn't do it for me. i might have said tale of three brothers because i know the back story, but just reading it i didnt get the full impact when i pretended i didnt know the background
excellent and well thought out though

The fountain of fair fortune was my favourite - however I must say I found them all pretty boring, a lot of hype and very little substance. The very first HP related material I won't be rereading over and over again.

I liked the wizard and his hopping pot! They were a little short, though. Not the best of Rowling's books.
