Henry the Sled Stealing Dog 🐕🛷
12/25/24 • 13 min
This month’s episode is about my parents’ black lab Henry, who we discovered takes an unusual and vast delight in stealing and returning sleds. Not just any sleds, however, only those that he believes are not sleds at all...but actually giant frisbees that it is his very serious responsibility to catch and return to us...even if we’re the ones sitting on them!
Let’s find out how we discovered his amusing habit, and enjoy a wintery trip to the past.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Next Episode
The Hedley Kow 👵🏻🪙🪨🐉
Hi friends!
Last season we had a story about a fellow named Hans who was born on a leap year and believed he was the luckiest man alive...and interpreted every even that happened through that lens. This month’s episode features an old woman with a similar outlook on life, as well as a mischievous shapeshifter who really tries to test her sunny outlook.
Like our recent story “Fairies in the Chimney”, this is an adaptation of a story collected and written by Joseph Jacobs in More English Fairy Tales from 1894, and I appreciate the lightheartedness of several of the tales he collected. Traditional fairy tales can be scary and magical and moralistic, sure, but they can be fun and silly, too!
