Gather your family to listen to a bonus feature of original stories told by members of National Youth Storytelling, and recorded live in the Apple Seed studios.

(1:42) "Candy House Witch" - Claire Burnham tells an adaptation of "Hansel and Gretel" that sheds some light on a misunderstood perspective--the evil witch herself!

(8:57) "Texas Tall Tale" - Rebekah Garcia combines personal experience with classic tall tale in a story about weathering storms and facing your fears.

(16:28) "Rainbow Crow" - Cohen Botkin shares a creatively adapted creation myth about the origins of fire and the brave bird that brought it.

(23:16) "One Wish" - Elsie Parkinson tells a clever story about gratitude and gifts, but especially about the rewards of kindness.

Stories bring us together, and the stories on The Apple Seed will spark memories that you can share with the people you love. The Apple Seed is a storytelling podcast by BYUradio and is hosted by Sam Payne.
