Orphan Boy with a Heart of Gold

This fourteen minute folk tale packs a huge lesson for anyone who will hear it. Fickle, selfish people who reject young Puzwuk when times are good have second thoughts when the starving time comes, and he is the only one to go out and find food . . . first only one small bird . . . but a bird which he chooses to share. Traveling farther and farther from home to search for food for his village, the young Puzwuk risks life and limb for a people who had previously had not accepted him. Only one had, the old widow, and she adopted him as her own. This story has become my favorite of all of the audible shorts so far. And I will come back to it, time and again. Because it shows what the love of one person can do for a child. And what the determination of one child can do for an entire village. Bravo!
