Episode 3 - Yugi & the Tengu03 oct. 202600:23:23

Hello Story Lovers!

Today's story from Japan and features a wonderful creature from Japanese myth and legend – the Tengu!

Tengus are supernatural beings with special powers and magical items. They can be depicted as part man, part bird, even as part monkey, and they have often been painted or drawn with red faces and long noses or beaks. They are not to be trifled with, as you will soon find out. If you want to find out more about Tengus you can do so HERE.

We love Geraldine McCaughrean's version of the story - 'Never Tangle with a Tengu', which Emily heard as a child and we owe credit to.

Our story comes from the Louisiana Bayou. It's a Cajun story, and you can learn more about Louisiana and the rich Cajun culture HERE.

Cajun French

Les maringouins l'ont mangé ma belle. 

ils'ont resté de ses gros orteils 

c’est Pour me faire des bouchons de liège,

c’est Pour boucher mes demi-bouteilles. 

Et mon papa s'en alle mulet, 

Et Ma maman s'en allait 'léphant, 

Et Mon p'tit frer' sur un ouaouaron,

Et ma p'tit' soeur, sur un coin d'mon coeur.

Episode 21 - Tonino & the Fairies04 juil. 202600:33:58

Hello listeners!

We are delighted to bring you this wonderful tale from Granada in Spain! Granada is a beuatiful city at the the foot of the Sierra Nevada. When we visited there, we found it very magical. You can find out more about Granada HERE.

We found a version of this folktale in the book Three Golden Oranges and other Spanish Folktales. It's a bit old fashioned about disability so we made some changes to be more sensitive. We hope you like our version.

Huge thanks to our friend Maria Gomez-Diez for her help with this lovely story.

Lost Stories - Nasruddin feeds his Coat28 juin 202600:17:01

Hey story lovers! While you’re waiting for the next new story, we’ve decided to look back into the archives at some stories that got a bit lost for a while.

Every other week, we will be giving these episodes a spot light and calling them 'the lost stories'.

Our story is all about the wise fool Nasruddin.

He’s a wonderful character whose tales are told all across the Islamic world – India, Pakistan, the middle east, turkey, Afghanistan, even parts of Greece, Albania, Macedonia, Russia, even China.

Mullah Nasruddin is sometimes called 'Hodja' – which means master, and his lessons are very interesting. He gets up to all sorts of funny antics, but we also learn that he can be unusually wise. Lots of people go to him to advice – from peasants to Emperors.

You can find out more about Nasruddin HERE and there is a lovely book of his tales HERE.

Episode 19 - Ali Baba & The Forty Thieves Part 112 juin 202600:23:39

Hello Story lovers! We are so excited to bring you a two parter from the famous collection: Arabian Nights, also known as ‘The Thousand and One Nights!’

Do you remember the Fisherman and the Genie back in Season one? That’s from the Arabian nights. All the tales are told by the beautiful Sheherazade who tells a story every night for 1001 nights so that her husband, the King, will keep her alive - yikes!

Her stories are so entertaining, and she’s so very clever, she leaves them on a bit of a cliff hanger so the King just has to hear how the story ends the next night! And it saves her life.

We are leaving a bit of cliffhanger too! Part 1 this week and Part 2 next week!!

If you want to read more of the tales in this brilliant collection, you can find them HERE.

Lost Stories - Catching the Moon & The Froggy Song07 juin 202600:22:35

Hey story lovers! While you’re waiting for the next new story, we’ve decided to look back into the archives at some stories that got a bit lost for a while.

Every other week, we will be giving these episodes a spot light and calling them 'the lost stories'.

Our story comes from a collection of stories from the Southern states of America. 

And features a very tricky character who loves getting up to mischief.

Brer Rabbit.

These stories were carried over the ocean by African slaves, and although we might now feel a bit uncomfortable with the voice of Uncle Remus (stories told through a white man's lens) these animal stories are fantastic and need to be celebrated in their own right!

Hey story lovers! While you’re waiting for the next new story, we’ve decided to look back into the archives at some stories that got a bit lost for a while.

Every other week, we will be giving these episodes a spot light and calling them 'the lost stories'.

Our story is a very very old tale from the Australian Aboriginal people. They do not have a written down language, so their wisdom is passed down through word of mouth, symbols and beautiful art work. Aboriginal people of Australia believe that the Dreamtime was way back, in the very beginning of time. Everything was created by ancestor spirits. They made the rivers, streams, water holes hills, rocks, plants and animals. They believe the earth is sacred, and should be honoured and protected. You can learn more about their culture, religion, landscape and animals HERE

Episode 7 **Christmas Special - Aladdin Part 1**20 déc. 202500:53:35

Merry Christmas Story Lovers! We are so excited to bring you our two-part CHRISTMAS SPECIAL!

This is our version of Aladdin and his Magic Lamp.

Here in the UK, we have a great tradition of Pantomime, and the story of Aladdin is very popular at Christmas! It's also a request from one of lovely patrons.

You’ve probably seen the Disney version of Aladdin, but the older versions are a bit different.

The story appears in later versions of the 1001 nights, or the Arabian nights, but it's actually not part of the early collection. It appeared in the 1700s and is thought to come from storyteller Hanna Diyab - but who knows where he got it from!

You can find out more about the origins of Aladdin HERE.

Make sure to listen out on Christmas Eve for PART TWO of this epic adventure - we'll also have a story from lovely Kim Normanton from Super Great Kids Stories as an extra Christmas treat. Yippee!
