  • Summary

  • Welcome to Season 6! This episode we welcome the Yarnsmith Dave Tonge to our podcast. Dave has many a yarn to spin. He is a fabulous storyteller – and also a Historian and an award-winning author! He’s written books on Northfolk folktales for children, Medieval folk tales and Tudor tales too. So if you like a bit of history to your tales, you’ll love Dave’s books. But today, he’s telling us a very old tale from Aesop about cunning. If you'd like to find out more about Dave Tonge, you can do so HERE. And you can buy Dave's books HERE. My story today, The Freedom Bird, is about a mythical bird from Asia. There are versions of this story from Thailand from Vietnam and India, but the message is always the same. It’s one of my favourite stories to tell in live performance, because it’s so simple and easy to join in with. So I hope you join in at home listeners – it will annoy your grown ups ALL DAY! Nah na Nah na NAH NAH!
