Tonight we are in Iceland and traveling with five brothers who encounter Giants!

The lore of giants in Iceland serves as a means to explain the island's dramatic landscapes, as well as to teach moral lessons and emphasize the importance of respecting the forces of nature. Through the stories of giants and their interactions with humans, the Icelandic people have created a rich tapestry of folklore that showcases the precarious balance between the natural world's power and the human spirit's resilience.

I hope it makes you very Fairy Sleepy, until next time, goodnight!

Folklore, Sorcerers, Italy? Yes, please! Tonight's story Virgilius The Sorcerer is taken from the Violet Fairy Book, Edited by Andrew Lang, and tells the story steeped in legend about the poet Virgil and the beginnings of Naples, Italy, oh, and the egg that protects it.  Yep, you read that correctly!

I hope it makes you very, Fairy Sleepy! Until next time goodnight.

Happy St. Patrick's Week! Tonight's story is a bit of a collaboration between myself and technology because finding stories about Leprichauns is almost as difficult as locating an actual Leprechaun!

I hope you enjoy the Luck O' The Irish this and every week, and the story makes you very Fairy Sleepy. 

Until next time goodnight!

Is it possible that an engineer in Mexico captured a mythical creature on film?? I think it is possible; I'd like to believe it is! Tonight's story is called The Enchanted Types by L Frank Baum. It's about a small mythical creature affecting not just fashion but also the newspapers and advertisements in the human realm. It seemed relevant! Thank you SO much for listening and helping Fairy Sleepy reach over 500k downloads! I appreciate you!
I hope tonight's story makes you very Fairy Sleepy! Until next time, goodnight.

I have always loved trees and nature and as much of the world looks forward to Spring's blooms or is coming out of the Summer months, this story resonates.

Tonight's story is "The Pool and the Tree by Mary De Morgan," a sweet story that highlights the intricate ways in which nature works together. 

I hope it makes you very Fairy Sleepy! Until next time, goodnight!
