Is there a child in your life who loves to argue with their siblings, friends, or worse, parents? If the answer is yes, join us in the world of Goop Tales to discover imaginative, entertaining, and educational audio stories for kids.
Whether your child is just waking up or winding down with a night time podcast, this immersive story is guaranteed to keep him or her entertained until the very end. Join twins Wonty and Whynotte, two curious Goop girls, who have the bad habit of always saying “I won’t” and “Why not”, as they find themselves on an iceberg in the Arctic. Listen as they slide into an ice cave, meet a very cute baby seal and do their best to escape a hungry polar bear.
Wonty and Whynotte’s adventure will resonate with any child (or siblings!) who loves to argue. The twins find problems when they hide in a walk-in freezer to avoid getting in trouble. They freeze solid and get transported to a very chilly iceberg and try to hunt down the wise Big White.
