Hey story lovers! While you’re waiting for the next new story, we’ve decided to look back into the archives at some stories that got a bit lost for a while.Every other week, we will be giving these episodes a spot light and calling them &#39;the lost stories&#39;.Our story is all about the wise fool Nasruddin.He’s a wonderful character whose tales are told all across the Islamic world – India, Pakistan, the middle east, turkey, Afghanistan, even parts of Greece, Albania, Macedonia, Russia, even China.Mullah Nasruddin is sometimes called &#39;Hodja&#39; – which means master, and his lessons are very interesting. He gets up to all sorts of funny antics, but we also learn that he can be unusually wise. Lots of people go to him to advice – from peasants to Emperors.You can find out more about Nasruddin <a href="https://mocomi.com/fun/stories/mullah-nasruddin/" rel="nofollow">HERE</a> and there is a lovely book of his tales <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wise-Fool-Fables-Islamic-World/dp/1782852557/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=the+wise+fool&qid=1617194339&sr=8-1" rel="nofollow">HERE</a>.Remember to join us over on Patreon.

Hey story lovers! While you’re waiting for the next new story, we’ve decided to look back into the archives at some stories that got a bit lost for a while.Every other week, we will be giving these episodes a spot light and calling them &#39;the lost stories&#39;.Our story comes from a collection of stories from the Southern states of America. And features a very tricky character who loves getting up to mischief.Brer Rabbit.These stories were carried over the ocean by African slaves, and although we might now feel a bit uncomfortable with the voice of Uncle Remus (stories told through a white man&#39;s lens) these animal stories are fantastic and need to be celebrated in their own right!Remember to join us over on Patreon.
