Hello and welcome to Super Great Kids Stories,
wise tales from storytellers around the world which will make you laugh and sometimes cry.
Recommended for ages 5 to 105.
I'm Kim and I love stories.
Today we have a funny story called The Cat That Ate the Palace, told by Tim Ralphs,
who recently told you The White Cow, which is a tale from Mexico.
How are you, super great kids?
I'm very pleased because lots of storytellers have been coming into our studio to record stories.
So I've been catching up with some old friends and collecting some more wonders from around the world for you.
Also,
it's getting closer to our Super Great Live show in London and to our new monthly online show with Jason and Amy.
And if you're coming to our birthday show, then feel free to dress up as your favourite character.
And if you can't come because you haven't yet learned the spell
for flying and you don't live anywhere near London,
then feel free to send us a picture of your favourite character or show it to us at our online show on September the 14th.
Another reason to be cheerful is that today we have a cat story.
Do you have a cat?
Meow.
I used to have a cat called Smudge.
He arrived on our doorstep one morning.
