The Blue House: An Honesty Story for Kid...

Rhea Pechter
About this episode

Tell the truth. It sounds easy, doesn't it? But what about when you are under great pressure not to? That is the situation Miro, a young chipmunk, finds himself in at work as a house painter. Will Miro find the strength to say what is true in the midst of the great, living forest? You'll have to listen and find out.

If you love this story, please share it with all fastidious weasels, owners of second-hand rodent tuxedo shops, headstrong rabbits who need a lesson in honesty, and your friends! They might just need a good story these days. Big People: if you happen to have an Apple device, leave a review in Apple Podcasts!

If your tiny person wants to share a story they've written, please send photos or recordings of it to rhea@littlestoriestinypeople.com. I'd LOVE to see their artwork, stories, and anything else they'd like to share.

BIG THANKS to the listeners who provided sound effects used in the story: MIA, CARTER, and EIMEAR!

Thank you to RAFAEL for contributing the reminder at the beginning of this episode!
