  • The Princess Mouse | Relaxing Fairytale for Sleep
    Feb 25 2025

    Welcome sleepy friends! Tonight, I’ll be sharing The Princess Mouse, a charming Finnish folktale that was originally featured on the podcast on February 28, 2023. This delightful story is all about surprises, fate, and the unexpected ways love can blossom. It has just the right touch of whimsy and magic, making it a perfect bedtime story to help you drift off to sleep.

    Since so many of you enjoy listening to old favorites again, I thought this would be a wonderful time to rebroadcast this story. Whether it’s your first time hearing it or you’re revisiting it like an old friend, I hope it brings you comfort and rest tonight.

    Sweet dreams,

    Joanne
