Bedtime Stories Podcast Fairytales and Folk Tales from the Lilypad for kids

Legend of the Wooden Shoe

Jan. 14, 2023

Lily finds this old folktale about the origins of wooden shoes, The Netherlands, and gnomes to have a fascinating and different way of looking at our relationship with nature.

It's rewritten and rearranged for Tales from the Lilypad by Marlene Wurfel. “The Legend of the Wooden Shoe” is adapted from a 1918 version in English by William Elliot Griffis in Dutch Fairytales for Young Folks. 

Original music composed by Reid Alexander Whelton for Tales from the Lilypad.
