Listen "Mittens and the Fox"
Episode Synopsis
Mittens, who wants to know more about the world, goes on an adventure to find a fox to teach her. She’ll have to be a quick student if she wants to make it back home with her knowledge, however! Based on the fairytale “The Fox and the Cat.”
Excerpt
Mittens the cat loved storytime just as much as the two tiny humans that lived in her home. She learned about the outside world from those stories. She learned about puzzles and problems. She learned how to think.
But as much as she loved storytime, it left her feeling empty. She wanted more. More adventures. More knowledge. More understanding how the world could work. Her two sources of information – her humans' stories and the stupid dog that always ran away from his home to visit her – just weren’t enough for her anymore. Mittens began to think that she would learn more about her world if she could just go outside.
After all, she hadn’t really been outside since she was a tiny kitten. Mittens kept thinking about how much more she would know if she went into the outside world. The more she thought, the more unhappy she became inside. It wasn’t that she disliked her home or her family. In fact, she never wanted to leave them. She just wanted to have at least one adventure.
