                <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;Liam wants to help his mom feel better when she comes home with a headache. Will his special concert cheer her up?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Narrator: &lt;/strong&gt;Male&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Story Begins: &lt;/strong&gt;3:46&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Feel Better Show &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;Excerpt:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Liam looked up at his mom. “Your head hurts?” he asked.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;She nodded. “A little, but I’ll be okay. I’m just looking forward to being somewhere quieter.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Liam frowned. He didn’t like hearing that his mother didn’t feel good. He wished her head did not hurt, and, more than that, he wished he knew how to help. As they finished shopping, checked out, and drove home, Liam kept thinking about how he could help his mom feel better.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;Today’s Meditation: Relax as you imagine you are a baby penguin snuggled close to its papa.&lt;/h4&gt;

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Liam wants to help his mom feel better when she comes home with a headache. Will his special concert cheer her up?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Narrator: &lt;/strong&gt;Male&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Story Begins: &lt;/strong&gt;3:46&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Feel Better Show &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;Excerpt:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Liam looked up at his mom. “Your head hurts?” he asked.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;She nodded. “A little, but I’ll be okay. I’m just looking forward to being somewhere quieter.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Liam frowned. He didn’t like hearing that his mother didn’t feel good. He wished her head did not hurt, and, more than that, he wished he knew how to help. As they finished shopping, checked out, and drove home, Liam kept thinking about how he could help his mom feel better.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;Today’s Meditation: Relax as you imagine you are a baby penguin snuggled close to its papa.&lt;/h4&gt;

                <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;Dragon sets out on a forest walk to find every color of the rainbow. What bright will Dragon discover?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Narrator: &lt;/strong&gt;Female&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Story Begins: &lt;/strong&gt;3:25&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dragon’s Rainbow Walk &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;Excerpt:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Looking down, Dragon saw tiny purple flowers growing close to the ground in a patch of sunlight. They were a deep, rich violet. Overhead, the pale blue sky was visible between tree branches laden with leaves ranging from lime green to deep emerald. Shades of green throughout the forest were especially plentiful. Deep green pine needles, lemony-green grasses, and sage green patches of moss dotted the landscape.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dragon was inspired by the beautiful colors and decided that today, it would be fun to search for all the colors in the rainbow, since they already had seen purple, blue, and green.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;Today’s Meditation: Imagine floating on a cloud, and relax into the feeling of lightness.&lt;/h4&gt;

                <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;Teagan Tugboat is reminded that everyone has their own special abilities when Izzy Icebreaker rescues her from the ice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h6&gt;&lt;em&gt;Hello everyone!  We hope you enjoyed our new stories this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Sometimes we like to listen to our favorites again. Please enjoy “Rescue Mission,” and we’ll be back with a new story on Monday!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Narrator:&lt;/strong&gt; Male&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Story Begins: &lt;/strong&gt;3:54&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rescue Mission &lt;/em&gt;Excerpt:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Teagan was excited about this adventurous day. They were headed north for a special winter training mission. It would be the farthest Teagan had ever sailed from Ahway Island Bay.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Teagan had always dreamed of going to far away places, but her job didn’t require such long journeys. Most of her work focused on helping boats enter and exit Ahway Island Harbor. It was an important job and she liked doing it, but today she was very happy to get the opportunity to explore a totally new part of the waters around Ahway Island.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

                <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;Soledad Sparrow&amp;#8217;s day doesn&amp;#8217;t go as she planned, but Gus Goldfinch helps her cheer up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Narrator: &lt;/strong&gt;Female&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Story Begins: &lt;/strong&gt;3:12&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Singing Sparrow &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;Excerpt:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;There were many berry bushes in the forest, but Soledad usually went to the same one, a large blueberry bush not far from the edge of the forest. The bush had extra tasty berries, and it sat in a patch of lush green grass. Ever since she had first discovered this bush, Soledad had come back to it again and again. Soledad liked routines and knowing what to expect.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Once she was in the forest, Soledad flew along the stream, following it to that special blueberry bush. She soon reached the bush…but when she arrived, she quickly saw that there wasn’t a single blueberry left on it! Soledad flew all around the bush, but she didn’t see any berries at all. How strange! She had been at the bush just a few days ago. There hadn’t been tons of berries then, but there had definitely been some left. What could have happened to them? Soledad frowned. Perhaps someone else ate the blueberries.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Soledad liked routines and knowing what to expect.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Once she was in the forest, Soledad flew along the stream, following it to that special blueberry bush.

                <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;Britney is feeling extra wiggly after school, so her dad takes her on a walk in the forest where they meet a new friend.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Narrator: &lt;/strong&gt;Male&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Story Begins: &lt;/strong&gt;3:34&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Whispering Pines &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;Excerpt:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;A short while later, Britney and her father were walking down the path into the Ahway Island forest. Britney looked all around with wide eyes. The forest was so beautiful, and there was so much to notice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tall trees stretched high above her head, letting patches of sunlight through. Britney noticed a ring of white-spotted mushrooms near the path. They looked like something from a fairy tale. She also found a stick shaped like a crooked letter Y and picked it up to carry with her, twirling it as she walked.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the art supply store on Ahway Island, a little family of paint markers sat on the shelf, waiting to be selected. They were seven colors all together: black, red, yellow, blue, orange, green, and purple.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As they waited in their pouch, hoping to be purchased, the markers liked to spend time guessing who would one day choose them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Every morning, Geoffrey would wake up and stretch his little neck toward the sky. He would open his beak wide, waiting for his mama to bring him breakfast.  She always brought the best treats, and dropped them right into his mouth.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Today, Geoffrey stretched his wings and fluffed his feathers. He opened his mouth, ready for his mama to give him something delicious. But instead of dropping a treat in his mouth, Gerry perched on the side of the nest, smiling.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
