Summary
Maked Up Stories is on a reduced schedule as Amanda, Steve, Jonah and Jesse hike the Abel Tasman Great Walk in New Zealand. Please expect an episode approximately every other weekday through the New Year when we will return to our usual schedule.
Will a young girl be able to save Australia’s Eucalyptus forests? The health of Australia’s magnetic Eucalyptus forests and the koalas that live in them are threatened by the mining activities of ten hard working dwarves, descendants of a German immigrant named Sneezy. The Guardian of the Forest needs Greta’s help to stop the destruction.
