Little Stories for Tiny People: Anytime and bedtime stories for kids

After overcoming a storm of challenges, Old Mr. Beetle practically skitters on a cloud as he makes his way, oh so merrily, to his Wednesday night story time for young bugs on the 25th branch. But when he nears his story time stage, he discovers that the end of the branch has been blocked off. The 26th branch, directly above, is dangling ominously and presents too much of a hazard to allow his story time to proceed. But even more disappointing is the fact that this new obstacle may impact something very important that is coming in three week's time. Listen in to find out whether Mr. Beetle is able to overcome yet another challenge...and come through for his dearest friend.
