Storytelling is more than entertainment. For centuries, storytelling was the primary medium by which cultures passed on values, history, and life lessons. These stories are part of our rich ancient cultural heritage.
Good News to parents or grandparents. You can just sit back, relax and cuddle with your child, children or grandchildren (ages 5 and up), and let the wonderful voices of the storytellers and music bring to life a multi-cultural world of mystery and fantasy. Once upon a time…

The Children of Tibet benefit.
Many Tibetan orphans are sleeping in tents at approximately 13,000 ft above sea level, which is almost the height of Mount Rainier (14,410 ft), and is higher than many Ski Resorts. The sale of CDs will help the Tibetan orphans out of tents and into a building where they can be warm and receive an education at the same time.
All profits from the sale of the CDs goes towards building a home and school for needy, homeless children in Tibet.
Enjoy listening to traditional stories from around the world. And, help the children of Tibet have a better life!
