Be sure to listen ‘til the end for the reveal of the episode's Gender Blender tale. Please note: River Reads is not a kids show but not not a kids show and may contain content suitable for a mature audience; listener discretion is advised.

River Reads is a program where those of all ages can escape into fairy tales and strange stories; both new and old, but mostly old and at times macabre, or silly, or even perhaps a little confusing as written in old english and the host fumbles words, and then there’s those stories whose premises have perhaps not aged as well over the years. Let’s face it you can’t be too picky when you’re dependent upon free material available to you through creative commons.

This episode's fairy tales are:

1. Snow-White, and Rose-Red. Grimms’ Fairy Tales By Brothers Grimm, Translated By: Mra. E.V. Lucas, Lucy Crane and Marian Edwards. Grosset & Dunlap. Publishers. New York. 1976.
2. The Table, the Ass, and the Stick. Grimms’ Fairy Tales By Brothers Grimm, Translated By: Mra. E.V. Lucas, Lucy Crane and Marian Edwards. Grosset & Dunlap. Publishers. New York. 1976.
