Eliana and James received a lovely message and repost of Leif listening to Epic Stories with Eliana! He wanted to hear the story of Malala Yousafzai in the Little People Big Dreams series. While she has a wonderful story about her advocacy for women’s education, we had trouble getting it from our library. We chose the Frida Kahlo edition of the series. Hope you enjoy it, Leif!

After hearing a story for his dad, Eliana’s cousin Jayden requested a story about Winnie the Pooh! Since we read stories on Epic Stories with Eliana, Winnie the Pooh: Owl’s Reading Lessons made perfect sense to read for his request.

Eliana picked a very special book for our… 100th EPISODE!!!! She was very surprised to learn that James would read these when he was a child, so it was exciting for him too. Thank you so much for listen to 1 or 100 episodes with us. We appreciate everyone’s support and requests!

Eliana’s uncle, Nene, has been waiting for this request for a long time. It was the promise from when he brought Eliana a storybook full of Ariel’s stories. While this isn’t a story from that book, hopefully he still enjoys it!

We have a short but wonderful request from Eliana’s friend, Vera! It is a book that is meaningful to her and her family. Hopefully, it can add a bit of meaning to our listeners or at least get them to go to their local library!

Eliana really enjoyed this request from Rory in Canada! She thought Tiny T. Rex was adorable, and she loved how hard he worked to show his love for his friend. James thought this was a great request from RAWR-Y!

James and Eliana love Scooby Doo, so we were excited when we got a listener request from Austin for a new Scooby Doo story. The gang solves a mystery while on a ski trip, and James had to try hard to avoid using his Scooby Doo voice!

One of our listeners, Gemma, is ready (or maybe not) to welcome a new baby into her family. Hopefully, she can learn some tips from this story. So many children have younger babies that change the family dynamic. While we don’t have that with James and Eliana, we wanted to help any of our other listeners!
