The Elves and the Shoemaker

Welcome to another story from the Land of Nod! Today's story is another classic from the brother's Grimm and was collected in the first volume of Children's and Household Tales all the way back in 1812! It was actually the first of three stories about rascals of elves and if you keep an eye out you might just find another one down the line! The beauty of this story is in the wonderful generosity of the little shoemaking elves and in the selflessness of their acts towards the shoemaker and his wife in their time of need. It is a wonderful tale of the value of kindness, not only towards the recipient but for the giver also! Thanks so much for listening and we will be back with another wonderful story next week!

Thank you for the wonderful music!
