What is Family Folktales? Think of it as story time on demand. Whether you're running errands, trying to make dinner, or getting little someones ready for bed, you can listen to a story or two. The stories may be new to you or old favorites. They may even be different, possibly gorier, versions of those stories you now share with your children. Listen, wherever you get podcasts.

Pretty good😄
I like your stories a lot. I listen to them before I go to sleep. The only problem I have with them is that the endings need work. I think there could be a lot more to the endings then, “and the main character lived happily ever after or, “and the evil character died. But other then that great job. 😜😝😛🥳
Great podcast
I love these classic tales!! I noticed that other people want different endings to the stories, and I know that you are just reading stories that had already been written and so you can’t really change them and I think your doing great.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
