Episode Details

Welcome to Season 2 of Dragonfly Tales, a story podcast for children of all ages.

So there is lots going on right now. Hurray! Valentine's Day, Pancake Day (UK) and Chinese New Year! 

And we have THREE amazing stories for you in this episode.

Our first is from our young guest teller, Sofia. She is 8 years old and is telling a traditional tale from her home in France - Fox and Crow. Animal tales appear in every culture on every continent, and this one is a lovely version of an Aesop fable. Fox fools crow with its cunning and wit to win some food. A beautiful telling, Sofia! Bravo!

If you would like to read more about the French version, you can do so HERE.
