All in English Fairytales
Ep. 1273 - The Three Heads of the Well
This week's tale is one of my favorite versions of the "Toads and Diamonds" story - 'The Three Heads of the Well'.
Ep. 950 - Scrapefoot - An English Fairytale
Finishing off our week of tales from Joseph Jacobs we have what is absolutely my favorite version of the Goldilocks tale - 'Scrapefoot'.
Ep. 949 - The Three Wishes - An English Fairytale
'The Three Wishes' is a lovely English fairytale about thinking before you speak and of course a delicious black pudding.

Ep. 755 - King John and the Abbot of Canterbury - An English Fairytale
'King John and the Abbot of Canterbury' is an English take on the Italian 'Crab' and German 'Dr. Knowall', but it's my absolute favorite version of the story.

Ep. 754 - The Cat and the Mouse - An English Fairytale
Our first of three stories from "English Fairytales" and "More English Fairytales" by Joseph Jacobs is 'The Cat and the Mouse' and it's one of my favorite kinds of tales, the progressive tale of a mouse on a quest.
