Inspired by Jean de Brunhoff and Laurent de Brunhoff's beloved children's books, this animated series tells Babar's life story from the elephant king's point of view, reliving his early days as a young pachyderm with important lessons to learn.
It was kind of like the Waltons, maybe like The Cosby Show (minus the humor), Father Know's Best, you know what, pick the sickeningly saccharine TV sitcom and that is kind of what Babar was.
As a child I thought it was preachy and, as an adult, I know it was kind of preachy.
