Original, screen-free spoken stories for children rooted in listening, imagination and myth.
These stories are spoken aloud by Brenda Joy Addie and are intended to be listened to quietly — without screens or images. They are stories for all children: listeners, dreamers, wanderers, and those who like to wonder.
They invite children to make their own pictures, to rest inside language, and to discover stories as a living, breathing experience.
They are created and told by Brenda Joy Addie — theatre-maker, storyteller, and writer of myth-inspired work for children.

Spoken stories for schools and libraries
Brenda Joy Addie also offers live spoken-story sessions for schools, libraries, and small groups. These sessions are quiet, image-light, and shaped to encourage listening, imagination, and the making of inner pictures.
Schools often choose to book two or three smaller sessions across the day rather than one large group.
Enquiries are welcome from schools, libraries, and small learning communities.
