Hey grown-ups, we are making a new podcast for young people 9 years old or older.

It's called Ghost Tour. Set today in the invented southern town of Jepsen, North Carolina,

widely known as one of the most haunted cities in America. Ghost Tour follows an unlikely pair

of teenagers as they turn their local ghost tour company upside down by uncovering

ghoulish secrets of Jepsen's past, but we can't make Ghost Tour happen without our listeners.

That's why we are inviting you and your tale blazers to come join us from the very beginning

and be a part of the whole entire process. With your donation, they will get the opportunity

to be a part of our rehearsals, recording sessions, and perhaps even beyond the podcast.

You can listen to the first episode of Ghost Tour anywhere you find your podcasts.

Then just head to cordeliastudios.com slash ghost tour to help us make ghost tour happen.

Thank you for supporting the first season of Ghost Tour and being a part of our legacy.

Hey tale blazers, I'm Rebecca Cunningham and this is Girl Tales, a kids podcast of feminist

stories for a new generation. Before we get started, I want to wish a very happy birthday to Ella.

Ella, I hope your birthday is just wonderful. Grownups Girl Tales is brought to you by families

like yours. If you would like to hear your child's name at the top of our next episode,

or if you would like me to wish them a happy birthday, just head on over to patreon.com slash

Girl Tales and donate today. Now on to our episode. This is Persephone. Enjoy!

I'd like to tell you about a friend of mine. Her name is Persephone, and every year she visits

freshwater right around this time. If you're like me right now, it's still pretty chilly outside.

But signs of spring are starting to appear. You might hear more birds chirping or notice that the

days are growing longer. You might even see some pops of color as flowers begin to peek their

buds above the ground. This time of year is always my favorite. I do love the coziness of winter,
