Thank you. Hello, and welcome to the Sparkle Stories podcast for 2025.

This year we're going to do something different.

This year we're going to center our podcast

production on your favorite stories. So each week we'll be featuring a listener favorite,

starting with this week. This week's story is from a listener named Finn in Vermont. So it doesn't

matter if you are four years old, 44 years old or 84, we want to know

what story is the one you like the best. Even more, we'd love to feature it here on the podcast.

So message us at hey at SparklStories.com and let us know. Okay, so today's story is called

Funny How Things Work Out. It's from the

Junkyard Tales All Together Now collection. Finn, who chose this story, says it's his favorite, because number

one, junkyard Tales is obviously his very favorite collection. He loves the characters, all the

different personalities. He says

tons of really fun characters. And his favorite characters are Spiro the skunk and Zippy the

porcupine. So this story is about when Spiro and Zippy's ductwork home is suddenly taken away by a

flat bed truck. And the whole junkyard rallies

to help them. And it works out, but not in the way they expected it. So listen in to Fenn's

favorite story and find out what happens. If you'd like to enjoy our full library at Sparkle Stories, that's over 1,500 original
