If you're familiar with fairy tales, you might recognize the old story of the boy who is kind to animals and gets rewarded by them when he's in need. Enjoy Edith Nesbit's quirky take on this classic tale, which includes talking mussels, a fierce but friendly wind, and kings who are fed up with reigning.

Music: Northern Ballad by Ukrainian musician William King.

Wonderful and so fun! I’m 69 but enjoyed this tale with childlike delight! Thank you.

Just perfect music and story choice and of course you for telling the story so well.

What a gorgeous tale of love and care… love E. Nesbit! And love your reading and music, just exquisite, thank you!🙏🏽❤️

A strange story I’ll have to listen to again, since I slept through most of it. Seventh child of the seventh child or family? But thank you anyway for the reading, Mandy. (& I liked the music!)
