Looking for a new story to read to your children? Here are three delightful tales to choose from.

Rat - This is my adaptation of a traditional Chinese folk tale

The One I Feed- I came upon this wonderful story by Vickie Smith on a peace email list and it has become quite famous now. You may have read shortened versions, but this is the complete original. I have written a little song to go with it.

The Fairy at the Top of the Christmas Tree - This was given to me by a woman I met in Sydney at a Druid Workshop around 1991. She found out I was a storyteller and rattled this story off at me. I said “Oh could you tell me again?” She did. I said “Um, do you think you could you tell me one more time?” She said “What’s your address, I’ll write it down for you.” This was a big thing as the story had been passed down by word of mouth for generations in her family, but she encouraged me to pass it along. Hope you and your family enjoy this unusual angle on the history of Christmas. She only gave her name as Morgan- a good pagan name!
