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.
This week, I'm very pleased to tell you that we have a story from the beautiful country of Vietnam.
It's called The Tiger, the Farmer and the Water Buffalo.
And it's told by Mo Phung Lang.
How are you this week, super great kids?
It's August, high summer in the northern part of the world and full-on winter in the southern part.
Wherever you live, north or south,
I hope you're enjoying listening to stories on the beach or snuggled under your blankets.
Did you enjoy last week's story from southern Africa about the mantis and the moon?
I seem to notice the moon more in the summer.
Perhaps because I'm outside for longer.
Last night I was cycling home from seeing a film and the moon was a crescent shape and it was glowing orange.
When I was young, my dad gave me a coin which had a picture of astronauts landing on the moon.
He told me it contained a tiny speck of moon dust which had been brought back from the moon by astronauts.
I'm not sure if it really did,
but it was something which felt very special and I kept it in my treasure box.
Do you have anything which you treasure?
It might be a pebble or a shell which you found on holiday or a sparkly stone.
