How the Moon Became Beautiful–a Classic Children's Story

Long ago, people did not much of what that you learn in school today. Even the sun and the moon were mysterious objects that were impossible to understand, so ancient people created stories to help explain the natural objects as is the case with this ancient Chinese folk tale. Heya grownups! It’s me, the Readastorus! I looove sharing stories to your awesome kids—but guess what? My very good friend Don (he’s not a dinosaur, but he’s still pretty cool) has a story podcast just for YOU! It’s called LitReading —and it’s full of amazing old-timey tales by famous human writer-folks! Spooky ones! Funny ones! Think bedtime stories… for grown up kids! So when the kids are all tucked in—or running around in circles—search for LitReading wherever you find podcasts. Tell Don I sent ya! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
