Hello Dear Gentlefolk, today I’m excited to share that I’m part of the Kids Listen Mash Up, a seven part series of kids podcasts about Big Emotions. The story that I have in the “Fear and Bravery” mix is about our fairy friends Sar and Nieva - The Two Sister and The Wolf.

I’m delighted to share storytime space with my fellow Kids Listen Friends: Forever Ago, PJ Library Presents, Afternoons With Mimi, and the whole episode is hosted by: Eric from What If World.

Big Emotions: Kids Listen Mashups About Feelings

Welcome back to Big Emotions! Bravery doesn’t mean never feeling afraid - it’s about feeling fear and moving forward anyway. In Part 2 of Fear and Bravery, we hear more incredible stories from Kids Listen shows about facing fears, taking risks, and finding courage together. You’ll discover how sitting with fear, learning from it, and practicing bravery can change the way we experience challenges.
