Hello and welcome to super great kid stories, wise tales from storytellers around the world,

which will make you laugh and sometimes cry.

Recommended for ages 5 to 105. I'm Kim and I love stories.

I'm pleased because this week we're releasing the film of our show for subscribers.

we know these stories because people have been sharing them with each other for donkeys years.
