Hello lovely listeners!  While you’re waiting for the next new story, we’ve decided to look back into the archives at some stories that got a bit lost for a while.

Every other week, we will be giving these episodes a spot light and calling them 'the lost stories'.

This episode, our tale is THOUSANDS of years old. It’s a very long epic and we only had time to tell a part of it. If you liked the story and want to follow Odysseus on the rest of his journey, we’d recommend this version by Daniel Morden and Hugh Lupton – two amazing storytellers - The Adventures of Odysseus.

Hello lovely listeners!  While you’re waiting for the next new story, we’ve decided to look back into the archives at some stories that got a bit lost for a while.

Every other week, we will be giving these episodes a spot light and calling them 'the lost stories'. This episode we venture to Zimbabwe to hear a story from a clan of the Shona tribe - the Karanga! African storytelling is amazing and our telling would not have been possible without these two awesome books The Lion on the Path and Party Croc!

Welcome to Season 7 of the podcast! We’ve got lots of brilliant new stories, new guest tellers coming and of course – we have our spooktacular HALLOWEEN SPECIAL soon. 

Our first story of the season is from the huge continent of Africa. And this particular tale is from a country called Zimbabwe. I came across this story a long time ago in a collection of stories called Children of Wax. And the story itself is thought to originate from the Ndebele tribe, related to the Zulu tribes of Southern Africa.

Hello listeners!

Our last story of season 6 is a version of a fairytale that you probably know very well - Cinderella. Did you know there are hundreds of versions of Cinderella? The oldest goes back to ancient china. 

But this story is a version from the United States – and comes from along the Appalachian mountains. A huge mountain range stretching 2000miles all the way from Canada right down to Alabama. You can find out more about the Appalachians HERE.

We'll be back with Season 7 in two weeks time!

Happy Summer Holidays, listeners! To celebrate the summer time, we have an extra long episode for you. And it's a fairy tale from France - where we are .on holiday!!

You may have heard of the famous french writer Charles Perrault - he made many fairy tales famous (Sleeping Beauty, Beauty & the Beast, Blue Beard, Cinderella) but he wasn't the only one.
