Tonight's bedtime story comes from a new addition to my collection:  The Madonna of the Tubs, by Mrs. Ward. I especially like that this book comes with illustrations and has an inscription in the front (from 1907!). The book itself was published in 1886, which make this one a lovely old find. This episode is extra long because it's the full book! I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed reading it. Let me know what you think!

Tonight's whispered bedtime story reminds me a lot of Mr. Toad and Mr. Frog from the Wind in the Willows! Sandman's Stories of Snowed-In Hut is a short story compilation written in the early 1900s. It features A Fox, a Possum, and a Racoon trying to snuggle in and get ready for a winter storm but  they find an unwelcome guest and a secret tunnel in their new home! Snuggle up and get ready for a nice long listen as I read you to sleep.

**New episodes are out on Sundays for the Summer**

Hi there! Just wanted to do a quick whispered ramble episode updating you on my new recording schedule and some lovely books I found at a local shop in my new town. I hope that's ok with you!

My new home isn't as soundproof as my old home and we live off of a busy street so I'd rather do one good episode a week than put out two poorly done episodes. I appreciate your patience and understanding!

This story from Norway is one of my favorites, so I hope you enjoy it too! My grandmother used to read it to me as a kid growing up, so I have a lot of fond memories with her and this folktale. Sweet dreams!

If you'd like folktales read from your country, just let me know! I'm happy to bring a little bit of your home back to you.

Tonight's episode features a long form poem that took Lewis Carroll 2 years to write! It has loads of fun ASMR words, so I hope it gives you some great tingles!

This episode features more of Aesop's Fables - some of which I think you'll find very familiar! There are lots of pictures to describe in this episode and bonus finger tracing that I hope you'll find relaxing. Enjoy!

In this episode, I whisper you another bedtime story from the Brown Fairy Book. This particular story appears to be from Finland and reminds me of the fairytales I grew up hearing. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed reading it to you!

This episode is a companion episode to Edgar Allen Poe's 'How to Write a Blackwood Article'. A Predicament features Signora Psyche Zenobia (not Miss Suky Snobbs!) while she embarks on an adventure to inspire her first Blackwood Article. Her article seems to be successful, but at what cost?

This is another episode featuring two of many stories in an old fairytale book I own called the Brown Fairy Book. These two stories aren't marked with origin countries in my book, but they have a lot of German/Bulgarian tones to them. If you recognize where they're from, let me know! I'd love to know where they come from for sure.

You might recognize the first story as being very familiar to another fairytale I read to you a few weeks ago... I love how fairytales travel and change in different places around the world. I hope you enjoy this whispered reading!
