Listen to this cheerful poem about all the animals in the town coming together to make the wedding of the lice and the nit successful!
The second story is a Russian story titled “The Wood Sprite”.
There is a reason your parents don't want you going into the forest alone, where all sorts of mythical creatures live, and this story is proof.
