Life in the Folktale Forest is merry and bright! Jonathan made a glorious holiday feast—including his pop-in-the-oven crescent rolls and his Aunt Mary Ann’s famous sugar cookie recipe—so he and Mr. Redge can grab a plate, gather by the crackling fire, and settle in to hear some Christmas cheer. Join the holiday happiness as they listen to “A Cratchit Christmas” from the Girl Tales Podcast!  Girl Tales has reimagined Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol in this charming story about how Belinda Cratchit and her siblings, using Belinda's inventions and their collective creativity, change Scrooge’s miserly heart and teach us all lessons in love and kindness.Find more Girl Tales episodes: https://girltalespodcast.com/HEY DORK SQUAD!
