info_outlineWhere will the little fir tree’s burning desire for adventure take him? Hans Christian Andersen, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.
Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening.
Well, we’re in a bit of a fix, and we need your help. And as usual, I’ve left it until the last minute. Last year, Cilla was diagnosed with breast cancer. She’s fine, now. She’d had her surgery and is now considered cancer-free. But we’re still dealing with the aftermath, and let’s just say it’s a pretty blue Christmas around here.
We’re about to start season 19 of the podcast, and I honestly don’t know how I’ve kept the lights on this long. But it’s been my absolute joy to do this show. I’m so very grateful to all of our supporters who have and do support us, but I’m afraid I need your help again. If you’d like to ensure The Classic Tales keeps going strong, please visit the website, classictalesaudiobooks.com, and either make a donation, or pick up one of our many support options.
Not looking to get rich, here. Just trying to make it through this rough patch. So if you can lend a hand, we’d really appreciate it.
And now, “The Fir Tree”, by Hans Christian Andersen.
