The Runaway Bunny

What the cast said

Welcome back to StoryBeam, the daily podcast where imagination shines bright.

I'm Kat.

I'm Allison.

Happy Throwback Thursday, friends!

Yes, for today's Throwback Thursday, we are traveling all the way back in time to read a timeless story about a love that will follow you anywhere.

Our StoryBeam is shining a light on a cozy classic, The Runaway Bunny by Margaret Wise Brown.

Wherever he goes, his mommy finds him.

She sure does.

No matter if he becomes a fish in a trout stream or a rock on a mountain, his mother is always there to care for him.

Just like I will always be there to care for you.

Aww.

Let's snuggle up and read this beautiful tale together.

Yay!

Let's get our ears on.

I've got mine.

Ready?

Three, two, one, let's read!

Here the cast reads The Runaway Bunny by Margaret Wise Brown. The book's own words stay with its author and publisher, so that part of the recording is not written out. Press play to hear it.

And then there's the little baby. She's with her mommy.

The book reading continues in the recording. Listen along, then rejoin the conversation below.

There's the little babies, and they're like in the moonlight, and they're like in their little hole underground.

What a beautiful reminder that a parent's love is always there to protect you, no matter where your imagination takes you.

Co-host, if you were playing a game of hide and seek outside right now, where would your dream hiding spot be?

I would hide somewhere like in a garden.

I would hide under like moss and I would cover myself up with flowers.

That sounds like an excellent spot. That's so beautiful.

But you know, I'd always find you to give you just a great big hug.

Grown-ups, to keep the classic bedtime cozy vibes going, our StoryBeam suggestion for your library bag is a companion classic, Goodnight Moon, also by Margaret Wise Brown.

It is the ultimate soothing story to wrap up a busy day.

Look for it in our show notes.

Send us your favorite book requests.

That's right. Send us your favorite book requests in the comments or send us an email.

You can never run away from love.

This is so true. Have a peaceful and happy Thursday families.

We will see you tomorrow morning for Friday Favorites.

And don't forget, keep on reading. Bye.
