All in Folklore
In today's story we meet the cast of characters that make up the classic French fairy tale of 'The Yellow Dwarf'.
In the conclusion of the classic fairy tale 'East of the Sun West of the Moon' we find out if our heroine is able to rescue her prince from his betrothed.
In Part 2 of the classic fairytale 'East of the Sun and West of the Moon', we follow the young maiden on her hero's journey to find her Prince.
This week we have a treat, the classic tale of love, loss and the search for a magical castle that can be found 'East of the Sun and West of the Moon'.
Today we begin a story of love and the perception of one's own beauty told in two parts. This is 'Prince Hyacinth, Pt. 1'.
Today we finish the story of 'The Bronze Ring' and discover if the mice are able to recover the prince's magic ring from the magician. Because of course that's the kind of thing you trust to mice.
Part 2 of 'The Bronze Ring' would have been the perfect place to conclude the story, but there's more deception and hardship for our hero to pass through first. TW racist language.
Part 2 of 'The Bronze Ring' begins with the old woman at a fountain and ends with a wedding with a bunch of crazy thrown in the middle. TW animal cruelty and murder (kind of?).
We end the week this week with two lovely poems - 'Autumn Fashions' and 'Pomona's Best Gifts'.
'Why the Autumn Leaves are Red' is one of those special kinds of origin stories that you really should listen to first before you share it with children. It's a little on the violent side.
