    Hickory

    I hope you're enjoying the early days of summer. Today, I'm sharing the delightful, heartwarming story of Hickory by Palmer Brown. It is a new-to-me book, but it has quickly become a well-loved classic in our home.

    The Beauty and the Beast

    Today, I'm tackling one of the most well-known and beloved fairy tales of all time in its original form, Beauty and the Beast. Written in the 18th century by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve, much of the story will be familiar, but this version has many unexpected twists and turns. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by it.

    Snow White

    Once again, I'm continuing down the fairy tale rabbit hole. Today, I'm sharing about Snow White. It is a new-to-me version retold by the irreplaceable Joan Aiken, with lovely illustrations by Belinda Downes. And I credit it with changing my view of the story.

    Sometimes Fairy Tales Say It Best

    Recently, I sat down and had a bookish conversation with Brittany Cuenin. Brittany is also a keen lover of children's literature and fairy tales, and when I found that out, I knew I had to have her on the show. I had so much fun talking with Brittany about all things fairy tales, and I hope you enjoy it as well. Brittany's Blog: Tales of a Bookworm

    Hans Christian Anderson's The Nightingale

    It's been a while since I've featured a fairy tale on the podcast, but I've wanted to do another series on them for some time. Recently, I've enjoyed re-immersing myself in the world of fairy stories, and I hope you'll join me on this adventure. Today, I'm starting with Hans Christian Anderson's beautiful fairy tale, The Nightingale.   Books mentioned in this episode: The Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Anderson (affiliate link) Tending the Heart of Virtue On Stories On Fairy-stories

    The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe

    The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe have captured the hearts and imaginations of countless children (and adults). Most recently, Lewis's magical story has enthralled my daughter. Because of her love of the story, I re-read the beautiful classic and share it with you today.

    Ode to a Used Book

    Welcome back! It's been far too long since my last podcast. I'm so happy to be back with you in the new year. Today, I'm sharing a letter that my mom wrote years ago. A letter I've affectionately named Ode to a Used Book. Enjoy!
