Aunt Kitty's Tales

Aunt Kitty welcomes listeners into a cosy world where a gentle, wise woman gathers a circle of bright‑eyed children for stories, games and quiet moments by the fire. Through her warm narration she introduces each young friend—Harriet, Mary, Susan, Lucy and the new arrival Blind Alice—explaining how they share secrets, settle little disputes and learn to see the goodness in everyday life. The narrator’s simple, heartfelt lessons on generosity, justice and self‑governance unfold as she guides the children on walks through blooming gardens, using nature’s beauty to soften anger and nurture gratitude.

The first tale follows the group’s curious visits to a modest white‑washed cottage on the edge of the village, home to a widowed mother and her teen daughter. As Aunt Kitty and the girls explore the charming garden and listen to the birds, they discover the quiet strength of a child who, despite her blindness, brightens the school and the hearts of her peers. Listeners will feel the gentle pull of friendship and the comforting rhythm of moral teaching that characterises this timeless collection.
