These stories, like any good children's book, skillfully combine amusement with valuable teachings.

Short stories for anytime

I used these stories mostly for down time with my grandkids. Just cuddle and relax time. The stories are short enough and easy to follow to hold their attention. The narrator did a great job energetically reading the stories and making it fun to listen to. The favorites were Snickers the dog, one about the Fairy learning to fly and the Genie. It’s a way for quality time and using their imagination.
