A beautiful ball appears to Natalia and Luis one day, near their home in the Andes mountains. They follow it further and further from their valley, until it suddenly disappears, leaving them stranded - and under the spell of an evil witch. Will they ever escape and find their way home? This traditional Argentinian story appeared in Tales from Silver Lands by Charles J. Finger, published 1924. This version was adapted by Elaine Lindy for the website Stories to Grow By.

Hosts John Fenn and Stephen Winick, and their guest Jennifer Cutting, introduce two more hidden folklorists, writer Charles J. Finger and filmmaker Nicholas Ray. Finger collected folklore for award-winning books such as "Tales from Silver Lands," "Sailor Chanties and Cowboy Songs," "Frontier Ballads," and "Robin Hood and his Merry Men." Ray was employed by the Works Progress Administration to collect folklore in 1938 and 1939, before embarking on a career as a filmmaker and directing "Rebel Without a Cause," "They Live by Night," "On Dangerous Ground," and "Johnny Guitar." Ray also directed the radio series "Back Where I Come From" with Alan Lomax. The episode includes four songs sung by Finger, identified by him as three chanties and a forecastle song, and three selections recorded by Ray, on one of which Ray himself sings.
