Ep 1035. Lost Little Loon: a calming bedtime and nap time story for children
Dharma Dragonfly notices a little loon following her on her afternoon dance. What is going on?
Narrator: Female
Story Begins: 4:02
Lost Little Loon Excerpt:
The dragonfly decided to keep an eye on the little loon as she continued her flight. Every time Dharma zipped in one direction, the loon paddled that way too. When Dharma slowed down and hovered in the air, the loon stopped and watched. “Hmm…that little loon seems to be following me,” thought Dharma.
She decided to test this idea. She flew in a quick zigzag across the pond. Sure enough, the loon paddled in the same direction, following the path Dharma had taken.
