Pina!

Hi Pina listeners.

Did you know there's a podcast that lets your little one spend time with their favorite Netflix

junior characters while also helping them fall asleep?

Well, it's true.

Bedtime stories with Netflix Junior is a great find for when it's time to wind down.

Created with Childhood Development Expert Dr. Tina Bryson. Each episode is designed to

establish a nighttime routine and help children transition gently to sleep while

also building skills to navigate the world. There are eight stories in all. Some of our favorites include

storybots, which investigates why humans need to sleep, and Ada Twist scientist,

where the questionnaires make a plan to meet the Tooth Fairy after Ada loses her first tooth.

It's a fun and familiar way to help your little ones fall asleep and each episode is its own delight

with more coming soon. Bedtime stories with Netflix Junior is available on Apple, Spotify,

YouTube, or wherever you listen to podcasts, so be sure to check it out. Hi, my name is Adam Gidwitz. I'm an author. I'm also a storyteller. I like telling all kinds of stories, but I especially like telling grim fairy tales. You may think you know Grim Fairy Tales, and you may think that they are sweet and boring.

But listen, those tales you heard were the cute, happy little kid bedtime versions of the Grim Tales.

The original Grim Fairy Tales aren't like that at all.

They're weird, and sometimes gross, and often scary.

In other words, they're grim.

And I'm about to walk into a classroom and tell one of the original grim, grim tales, to a bunch

of kids. Do you want to join me? Do you want to hear a grim fairy tale?

Let me help you decide. On a scale of grim, gr, and grimest, the story I'm going to tell today is grimer.

There are some sad moments, and someone dies suddenly, and it is kind of gruesome.
