About this Episode

This week I am sharing a story from Australlia. 'Sun Mother Wakes the World' is an Aboriginal creation story. It explains how the animals, plants, insects, moon, stars, and humans came to be. This reading is based of off the book 'Sun Mother Wakes the World' by Diane Wolkstein.

Welcome to the Global Storytime Podcast! Every two weeks I will bring a story from a different corner of the world so that we can get a glimpse into another place and culture. I will do my best to explain the potentially unfamiliar to provide context and will end each episode with some information about the country so we can get to know it better!

Comments or critiques are sooo welcome. You can email the show at [email protected].
