Speaker 1 (00:02):
Hi, this is Stefania. Welcome to the classic children's story
podcast Stories for Bedlund Laytime anytimeue to keep your little
ones entertained and happiness. We bring an international collection of stories,
Stories that teach, Stories that entertain and more. Uncle Wiggily
(00:25):
and the Brown hen now the story time. This is
about how Uncle Wiggily, in his travels about the country
in search of his fortune, help the little brown rent. Well,
where are you going this morning? Asked the red Squirrel's mother,
as Uncle Wiggily finished his breakfast and shook out from
(00:47):
his long ears the oatmeal crumbs that have fallen in them. Ooh,
I suppose I will have to be traveling on, answered
the rabbit. That fortune of mind seeing to be a
long distance off. I've tried rainbows and moonbeams, and I
didn't find any money at Darren's. I do you so
(01:10):
have to look under the water next. But I'll wait
till I get back home, and then I'll have Jimmy
wibblewobble the duck boy put his head at the bottom
of the pond and see if there's any gold down there.
So off, the old gentleman rabbit started limping on his
(01:32):
crutch for his rheumatism was troubling him again, and as
his side swung his case with some crackers and cheese,
and bread and butter and jam in it. Plenty of
jam too, let me tell you. For the red squirrels,
Mama could make lovely preserves, and this was carrot jam
(01:53):
with turn up frosting on it. Well. Uncle Wiggily traveled
on and on over the hills and through the deep woods,
and pretty soon he came to a place where he
saw a lot of little black ants trying to carry
(02:13):
to their nest a nice big piece of meat that
someone had dropped. Why how hard those ants are working,
thought the rabbit. But that meat is too heavy for them.
I'll have to help carry it now. The piece of
meat was only as big as a quarter of a
(02:36):
small coconut. But of course that's too big for an
anti carry, or even forty eleven ants. So Uncle Wiggily
kindly lifted it for them and put it in their nest.
Thank you very much, said the biggest aunt. If ever
we can do you a favor, or any of your friends,
(02:57):
we will. The oldman Rabits said he was glad to
hear that, and then taking up his crutch and case
again on he went. Pretty soon he came to a
place in the woods where the sun was shining down
through the trees, and a little brook was making pretty
(03:17):
music over the stones. And then all at once the
old gentleman rabbit heard a different kind of music, and
it was that of a bird singing. And this is
a song. The bird sang so sweetly. Here's how it goes.
(03:41):
There was a little brown bird sitting up in a tree.
He's singing to you, and he's singing to me. And
what does he say, little girl, little boy? All the
world's running over with joy. Then the birds sang about
how they were five eggs layed away in a nest,
(04:02):
and how pretty soon little birds would come out from them.
And then all of a sudden the birds sang like this,
but don't meddle, don't touch little girl, little boy, all
the world will lose some of its Joyah ha ha,
(04:23):
you seem quite happy this beautiful morning, said Uncle Wiggily,
as he paused under the tree where the bird was singing.
Why I do declare, he exclaimed, If it isn't missus
wrenn Well, I never in all my born days I
didn't know you were back from the south yet, yes,
(04:45):
uncle wiggily, said the little brown wren, I came up
some time ago. But I'm real glad to see you.
I'm going to take my little birdies out of the
shell pretty soon they are almost touched. Glad to hear it,
said the rabbit politely, And then he told about seeking
his fortune. And all of a sudden, a great, big,
(05:11):
ugly crowbird flew down out of a tall tree and
made a dash for missus Wren to eat her up.
But missus Wren get out of the way just in
time and didn't get caught. What alas and alas a
day the crow knocked down the wren's nest, and all
(05:35):
the sticks and feathers of which it was made were
scattered all about, and the eggs which the little brodies
were inside would have been all broken to smash, only
that they happened to fall down on some soft moss.
(05:57):
Oh dear, cried missus Wren sorrowfully. Now see what the
crow has done. My home is broken up, and my
birdies will be killed. Ha ha ha, cried the crow
as unkindly as he could, and it sounded just as
if he laughed. Ha ha ha. Oh, whatever shall I do,
(06:21):
asked missus Wren. My birdies will have no nest, and
I haven't time to make another and break up the
little fine sticks that I need and gather the feathers
that are scattered all over. Oh what shall I do?
So my birdies will be out of the shells? Never fear,
said Uncle Wiggily, bravely, I will help you. I'll gather
(06:45):
the sticks for you. Oh, but you haven't time. You
must be off seeking your fortune, answered the wren. Oh,
I guess my fortune can wait. It's been waiting for
me a long time, and he won't have to wait
a bit longer. I'll get you the sticks, said the
rabbit gentleman. So, while missus Fenn sat over the eggs
(07:10):
to keep them warm with her fluffy feathers, Uncle Wiggily
looked for sticks with which to make a new nest.
He couldn't find any short and small enough. So what
do you think he did? What? He took some bixsticks,
(07:34):
and he jumped a jiggly dance up and down on
them with his sharp paws, and broke them up as
fine as toothpicks for the nest. Then he arranged them
as well as he could, in a sort of hollow
like a teacup. Oh, if we only had some feathers
(07:56):
now we would be all right, said missus ven. It's
a very good nest for a rabbit to make. Don't
say a word, cried some small voices on the ground.
We will gather up the feathers for you. And there
came marching up a lot of the little ants that
(08:18):
Uncle Wiggily had been so kind to, And soon they
had gathered up all the scattered feathers, and the nest
was made on a mossy stomp and lined with the feathers,
and the warm eggs were put in it by missus Wren,
who then hovered over them to hatch out the birdies.
And she was very thankful to Uncle Wiggily for what
(08:43):
he had done. And that's the end of today's story.
I'll be back again soon with a new story. You
