Welcome to The Apple Seed! Some time filled with stories for you and your family. Since 2013 we’ve been bringing you tall tales, personal tales, fairy tales, historical tales and more. All kinds of tales, from all kinds of tellers. Some of the greatest feats in literature are completed in pairs. Without Samwise Gamgee, Frodo never would have gotten the ring all the way to Mordor. Without Doctor Watson, Sherlock Holmes would be lost. Without Calvin, Hobbes is just a stuffed tiger, and without Curious George, the man in the yellow hat is just, well, a man in a yellow hat. In today’s stories, you’ll get to hear about all kinds of dynamic duos, be they friends, foes, or family.
