āTis the season of good cheer and you, dear listeners, are our reason to be merry! Once Upon a Timesā traditional hedgehog holiday
has almost begunābut before the festivities commence, Mr. Redge has invited the Folktale Forestās Society of Bards and Balladeers to give you a glimpse into the magic of Jolly Holly Day. So, with narrative expressions of joy and great glee they present the poem, āTwas a Night Most Jolly Holly.Ā
Ā
PARENTS, TEACHERS AND HOMESCHOOLERS: This episode was inspired by āTwas the Night Before Christmas,ā to describe a holiday tradition from our imaginative land of Once Upon a Time. It demonstrates another important form of storytelling: the narrative poem. Poetry is form of self-expression and it helps us understand and appreciate the world around us.Ā
