ADVERTS DISCLAIMER:
This podcast has ads at the start of every episode. However never in the middle of a story or at the end.
Please be assured all ad blocks have been applied to ensure no over 18 or inappropriate ads are played.
However, there may be the odd occasion where an advert slips through the net because the company submitting them submits them under a category that is not correct. This happens very rarely and I do my upmost to stop this happening.
If this happens, please email me at shortstoriesforkids@gmail.com and let me know the following information: What the ad was for? What state you live in? And what episode you heard it on and I will immediately contact Spreaker to block the ad.
I take this very seriously and I really appreciate your support and co-operation.
As creators, we want your child’s experience to be a pleasurable one. Running adverts is necessary to allow us to operate, but please do consider the premium subscription service as an alternative – it’s ad free.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome back, friends, to short stories for kids. |
| 0:11.3 | And here is today's story request. |
| 0:14.6 | Hi, Lucy, I would like a story about a girl named Ada and a boy called Conrad, who live in Ireland with their magical |
| 0:22.6 | grandmother, who turns a car into a horse. |
| 0:30.6 | The wheels on Ada's mum's car drew up the driveway to her grandmother's old, thatched cottage in the green Irish countryside. |
| 0:46.2 | Ada was going to stay at her granny's for the night, so she invited her friend Conrad along. |
| 0:52.8 | Ada really couldn't remember her granny that well. The last time they met was when she was very young. In a way, she was nervous about seeing her granny again. It had been so long. |

| 1:12.8 | There is nothing around apart from empty fields. |
| 1:16.0 | I've told her time and time again to move into town nearer to us, Ada's mom said. |
| 1:22.0 | But she'll never do it. |

| 1:30.8 | Ada agreed the rolling green fields and the small spots of woodlands |
| 1:35.9 | were like something from one of the fairy tale books she'd read in bed at night. |
| 1:40.5 | I like it out here, Ada announced. |
| 1:43.1 | I understand why Granny likes it. |
| 1:46.4 | You were always like her, Mum smiled. |
| 1:49.9 | But isn't this the place they're building the new freeway? |
| 1:52.8 | Conrad asked. |
| 1:54.4 | Ada's mom sadly sighed. |
