Welcome aboard the Story Ark! Captain Kenny Mears dives into the world of Slavic mythology and one of its most iconic figures: the terrifying Baba Yaga. Known for her iron teeth, her long nose, and her peculiar, walking Chicken House, this witch has haunted folklore for centuries.
But what if the children she hunts aren't so helpless? In this original story by storyteller Ginger Parkinson, the traditional tale gets a clever, humorous twist. You'll hear how the children of a small village, tired of being Baba Yaga's favorite meal, learn to outsmart the witch and her unsuspecting house.
From a pyromaniac's fiery plan to a little girl's ingenious "snack" offering, the kids of the meadow use their wits to turn the tables on their monstrous foe. This engaging narrative shows that even the most frightening villains can be defeated by courage, cleverness, and teamwork.
Ginger Parkinson, a veteran storyteller with over two decades of experience, delivers this tale with her signature charm and wit. This episode is a must-listen for fans of fairy tales, mythology, and original stories with a twist.
