In this weeks episode we explore what it means to be part of a  community and how it’s important to stop and listen to others. Especially those members of the community who are heard from very often. We learn that those folk need listening to as much as the most talkative members of our community. Written by Yukiko Oakes and narrated by Jeanne Baron.

This week's story is about siblings, friends and how we really feel about them. Sometimes having a little brother with you when you are playing with  your friends can be a drag.  But sometimes we learn that people can have hidden talents and those talents can make all the difference.

In this week's story: We look at the joy that is to be found when you complete a task by yourself. Is nice to be able to rely on others and technology but when we stand up firmly on our own two feet and say, I can do this.  That is when we begin to experience confidence and the happiness that goes along with it.  This week's hero learns this lesson with a little help from the wise and very cute T-Bone the talking dog.  Written by Yukiko Oakes
