Please practice so your group can perform

Leif is a likeable fellow, but he never wants to listen to anyone, and he always has to do things his own way. His father warns him not to go work for the troll! The troll seems nice enough, but the jobs he gives Leif are trickier than they seem. Leif will only succeed with the advice of a beautiful and mysterious maiden he discovers in the troll's kitchen. Will Leif be wise enough to take her advice? And what will they do if the troll figures out he's been fooled? A lively Norwegian folktale that goes to show that women know best! (Script from Aaron Shepard, Illustration by Pauline Ellison)

There are many versions of the story, where a chicken eats lunch one day, and believes the sky is falling down because an acorn falls on her head. She decides to tell the King, and on her journey meets other animals who join her in the quest. In most retellings, the animals all have rhyming names such as Henny Penny, Cocky Lockey and Goosey Loosey. Finally, they come across Foxy Loxy, a fox who offers the chicken and her friends his help. After this point, there are many endings. Depending on the version, the moral changes. In the "happy ending" version, the moral is not to be a "Chicken", but to have courage. In other versions the moral is usually interpreted to mean "do not believe everything you are told". In the latter case, it could well be a cautionary tale: The Chicken jumps to a conclusion and whips the populace into mass hysteria, which the unscrupulous fox uses to manipulate them for his own benefit, sometimes as supper.

My group for extended day worked very hard on this podcast over the last three weeks. This story is about a girl named Cinderella who had the biggest foot in the Kingdom of the Land of Make Believe!
