Sky Dragons

Published: Sept. 22, 2021, midnight

Welcome to The Apple Seed! Some time filled with stories for you and your family. Since 2013 we’ve been bringing you tall tales, personal tales, fairy tales, historical tales and more. All kinds of tales, from all kinds of tellers.

One of the reasons we tell stories is they allow us to travel all over the world from our very own living rooms. Today we’re bringing you to the deep south, to France, to the sky where dragons roam, and finally home to your own back yard. You’ll get to hear Sophie Snell tell a story of Sky Dragons who are constantly fighting. Dolores Hydock tells us how a summer afternoon reminded her of all the good things in her life. In Jay O‘Callahan’s “Tulips,” a young boy learns the consequences of trying to play a trick on his grandmother. And Michael McCarty finds that you can change the hearts of anyone through “The Power of Love.” Travel around the world with us today on the Apple Seed!
