Welcome! Tonight, I’ll be sharing a special bedtime story from the Philippines called “The Story of Benito.”  I first shared this gentle fairytale on the podcast in May of 2023, and I thought it would be lovely to bring it back for anyone who may have missed it—or simply wants to enjoy it again as they drift off to sleep.

The Story of Benito is a touching tale about a kind-hearted boy whose greatest wish is to help his parents, who are very poor. Along his journey, Benito encounters many adventures—each one bringing him closer to making his dream come true.  A quiet, magical story full of warmth and hope—perfect for bedtime. I hope you enjoy it!

Sweetest dreams,

Joanne
