The Fighting Moose

I saw today's story title and I knew right away what story I was going to do. I went in search of a story about Blackbeard and one of the books that popped up was the book written by Howard Pyle titled “The Story of Jack Ballister's Fortunes.” I looked through the table of contents and found the story titled “Captain Butts.”

Well, today was supposed to be about time travel but instead, it's going to be about shipwrecks. Both very interesting topics in my opinion. Today, we read the story “The Wreck of the Visigoth” from the book “Soldier's, Three” written by Rudyard Kipling.

On March 22, 2022, NASA rolled out the Space Launch System which will be used to launch the Artemis missions to the moon. During that rollout, they mentioned that Artemis is the sister of Apollo. So today, we read the story “Apollo's Sister” from the book “Old Greek Stories Told Anew” written by Josephine Preston Peabody.

We are looking forward to when we can hang out newest creation in the yard. A few weeks ago, John and I built a bathouse. Now in keeping with our newest creation, John suggested that I do a bat story. So today, we read the story “Flitter the Bat and His Family” which comes to us from the book “The Burgess Animal Book for Children” written by Thornton W. Burgess.

Well, as mentioned in a previous episode, the birds are back in town. The other day, as we were pulling into the driveway, we saw a cowbird chowing some seed at the birdfeeder. Of course, I had to see if there was a cowbird story and there was. So today, we read the story titled “Some Unlike Relatives” from the book “The Burgess Bird Book for Children” written by Thornton W. Burgess.

I love the spring-time. It's a time when the sleeping Earth comes back to life after a long winter and plants start getting buds and bird return from their Southern vacations. With the birds starting to come back, with bird feeders cleaned and filled, and suet cakes out, I decided, we need a bird story. So today, we read the story titled “Peter Learns Something About Spooky” from the book “The Burgess Bird Book for Children” written by Thornton W. Burgess.

John and I were on the same page with this story. Before he said anything, I was thinking to myself “I think I want to do a George Washington story.” Not 10 minutes later, he says, “for the next episode, maybe you can do one about George Washington.” So here we go, the story about George Washington, titled “The First President” written by James Baldwin. This story comes to us from the book titled “Four Great Americans” also written by Mr. Baldwin.

Today, we get historical as we head back to the early 1800s with the story “The Kentucky House” from the book “Four Great Americans” written by James Baldwin. We look at the early years of Abraham Lincoln's life. This story comes from a suggestion from the number one fan of the podcast.

Do you know what Thor's goat's names are? No? Neither did I until I read today's story. So today, we have a double feature. The first story is “Thor's Hammer” and talks about Mjolnir and Thor's goats. Up next, we have the story “The Tree Yggdrasil” which talks about the tree Yggdrasil. Both of these stories come to us from the book “Myths of the Norsemen” written by H.A. Guerber.

The Bald Eagle is probably the most majestic bird I have ever seen. Granted it's a symbol of America but there aren't too many birds that I will stop and look at and just admire them. If you're like me, maybe you have wondered why they have a white head? Okay, I don't really think that but today we read the story “How Old King Eagle Won His White Head” from the book “Mother West Wind 'How' Stories” written by Thornton W. Burgess.
