2
00:00:09.740 --> 00:00:12.460
Think about a time you did something nice for someone.
3
00:00:13.220 --> 00:00:15.919
Maybe you shared a kind word or you held the
4
00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:18.800
door open for a stranger. We're about to meet some
5
00:00:18.820 --> 00:00:21.820
characters who think that helping others will be a burden
6
00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:25.649
and weigh them down. But little do they know, lending
7
00:00:25.710 --> 00:00:37.100
a hand could actually give them wings. I'm Rebecca Shear,
8
00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:39.899
and welcome to Circle Round, where story time happens all
9
00:00:39.939 --> 00:00:43.369
the time. Today our story is called The Wind Catcher.
10
00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:46.869
Versions of this folktale come from the Marshall Islands, a
11
00:00:46.909 --> 00:00:49.670
country made up of thousands of islands in the Pacific Ocean.
12
00:00:53.130 --> 00:00:55.289
Some really great people came together to bring you our
13
00:00:55.369 --> 00:00:59.310
adaptation of this tale, including Tony Award winner Lea Salonga.
14
00:00:59.820 --> 00:01:03.920
star of numerous Broadway musicals including Flower Drum Song, Les Miserables,
15
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:07.329
Miss Saigon, and Once on this Island. Leia is also
16
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:11.810
the voice behind two Disney princesses, Jasmine in Aladdin and
17
00:01:11.890 --> 00:01:16.950
Mulan in Mulan. So circle around, everyone, for The Wind Catcher.
18
00:01:17.049 --> 00:01:32.200
The Wind Catcher Long, long ago, a mother lived with
19
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:35.799
her ten sons on a balmy tropical island in a
20
00:01:35.900 --> 00:01:40.420
glittering blue sea. The island was surrounded by many other islands,
21
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:44.420
each of them covered with white sand beaches, leafy trees,
22
00:01:44.939 --> 00:01:50.299
and palm-like shrubs known as pondanus. All ten of mother's
23
00:01:50.379 --> 00:01:54.420
sons were strong and strapping and smart. So, when it
24
00:01:54.459 --> 00:01:57.319
came time for their island to name a new chief...
25
00:01:57.739 --> 00:02:00.280
The people decided that one of the sons would assume
26
00:02:00.340 --> 00:02:04.780
the role. But with ten intelligent, able-bodied fellows to choose from,
27
00:02:05.319 --> 00:02:08.900
how would they pick which one? The islanders pondered and
28
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:14.360
puzzled until Mother had an idea. I know, friends.
29
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:19.240
We will hold a boat race. My ten sons will
30
00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:23.340
speed their boats away from our island across the water
31
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:28.610
until they reach the next island over. Whoever arrives at
32
00:02:28.650 --> 00:02:32.889
the neighboring island first will become our new leader.
33
00:02:34.849 --> 00:02:38.210
Back in those early times, the only boats the islanders
34
00:02:38.270 --> 00:02:42.620
had were canoes. Narrow, pointy-ended vessels that you skim through
35
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:45.659
the water with a paddle. So over the next weeks,
36
00:02:46.020 --> 00:02:50.180
Mother's ten sons crafted special canoes for the race. The
37
00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:53.000
brothers spent long hours sweating on the beach as they
38
00:02:53.180 --> 00:02:56.590
scraped out tree trunks, then polished and oiled the wood
39
00:02:56.669 --> 00:03:00.069
till it gleamed. The morning of the race, the brothers
40
00:03:00.110 --> 00:03:02.810
were buzzing with excitement as they lined up their brand
41
00:03:02.889 --> 00:03:04.789
new canoes along the shore.
42
00:03:06.689 --> 00:03:10.860
Listen, guys, you better watch out because I can paddle
43
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:12.900
as fast as a gull flies.
44
00:03:13.180 --> 00:03:13.419
Ha!
45
00:03:14.139 --> 00:03:14.759
That's nothing!
46
00:03:15.500 --> 00:03:18.400
I can paddle as fast as a dolphin swims.
47
00:03:18.740 --> 00:03:22.539
Well, I can paddle as fast as a ray stings.
48
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:26.560
And I can paddle as fast as an eel strikes.
49
00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:31.879
The oldest brother, a burly fellow named Timur, crossed his
50
00:03:31.969 --> 00:03:32.849
brawny arms.
51
00:03:33.409 --> 00:03:36.330
And I can paddle as fast as all of you
52
00:03:36.449 --> 00:03:41.169
show-offs combined. Honestly, I don't know why you're even bothering
53
00:03:41.210 --> 00:03:45.710
to race against me, brothers. Especially you. Jaburo.
54
00:03:46.330 --> 00:03:50.770
All eyes turned to Jaburo, the youngest and most mild-mannered
55
00:03:50.830 --> 00:03:54.150
of the ten. The kind, calm fellow had been quiet
56
00:03:54.250 --> 00:03:57.250
all this time. Jaburo was about to open his mouth
57
00:03:57.389 --> 00:03:59.889
when all of a sudden, who should appear on the beach?
58
00:04:00.229 --> 00:04:04.969
Good morning, my sons. But, mother, this is going to
59
00:04:05.030 --> 00:04:07.069
be quite a race, isn't it?
60
00:04:07.469 --> 00:04:10.120
It's going to be an amazing race, mother.
61
00:04:10.129 --> 00:04:13.000
Timur puffed out his brawny chest.
62
00:04:13.659 --> 00:04:18.529
And as your eldest and mightiest son, I'm going to
63
00:04:18.629 --> 00:04:19.050
win it.
64
00:04:19.569 --> 00:04:22.870
Timur, I admire your confidence.
65
00:04:23.290 --> 00:04:26.009
Mother gazed at her sons with twinkling eyes.
66
00:04:26.730 --> 00:04:30.629
I admire all of you boys. Just look at those
67
00:04:30.790 --> 00:04:37.889
fine canoes you've built. So, that's why I'm wondering. Which
68
00:04:38.060 --> 00:04:40.600
one of you will let me ride along in your boat?
69
00:04:41.620 --> 00:04:46.120
I want to witness all the action close up. You'll
70
00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:48.899
just have to carry me and.
71
00:04:49.490 --> 00:04:51.379
She held up a large parcel.
72
00:04:52.139 --> 00:04:52.449
This.
73
00:04:53.629 --> 00:04:55.990
The brothers stared at the wrapped up bundle in

their
74
00:04:56.029 --> 00:05:01.329
mother's arms. The package looked clunky and heavy. The sheer
75
00:05:01.449 --> 00:05:04.329
weight of it was sure to slow down whichever boat
76
00:05:04.529 --> 00:05:05.230
mother rode in.
77
00:05:05.949 --> 00:05:10.389
Well, my dears, who will let me join them in
78
00:05:10.449 --> 00:05:17.709
their boat? Timur, like you say, you're the eldest. May
79
00:05:17.790 --> 00:05:18.689
I ride with you?
80
00:05:19.370 --> 00:05:22.829
Timur bit his lip, then shifted his eyes and shrugged
81
00:05:22.889 --> 00:05:23.970
his broad shoulders.
82
00:05:24.750 --> 00:05:28.829
I'm sorry, mother, but look at those choppy waves out there.
83
00:05:29.449 --> 00:05:33.569
And feel how the wind keeps changing directions and swirling about?
84
00:05:34.389 --> 00:05:38.939
Clearly this race is too dangerous to bring along any passengers.
85
00:05:39.540 --> 00:05:43.490
You can't ride with So Mother turned to her next
86
00:05:43.629 --> 00:05:44.250
oldest son.
87
00:05:45.069 --> 00:05:46.790
My boat's too narrow, Mother.
88
00:05:47.410 --> 00:05:48.149
And her next.
89
00:05:48.689 --> 00:05:52.269
My boat's too tippy.
90
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:53.769
And her next.
91
00:05:54.819 --> 00:05:55.740
My boat's too small.
92
00:05:56.399 --> 00:05:57.240
And her next.
93
00:05:58.459 --> 00:06:02.240
My boat's too rough. I should have sanded it more.
94
00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:05.639
Each and every son found an excuse for why he
95
00:06:05.740 --> 00:06:09.439
couldn't bring Mother along in his boat. That is, until
96
00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:13.040
she turned to her tenth and youngest son, Jaburo.
97
00:06:13.699 --> 00:06:17.920
Jaburo, may I please ride with you?
98
00:06:18.540 --> 00:06:21.990
Jaburo eyed his mother's bundle. It sure did look heavy.
99
00:06:22.689 --> 00:06:25.430
But the kind-hearted fellow adored his mom, and he could
100
00:06:25.509 --> 00:06:28.129
see how much she was yearning to join the race.
101
00:06:28.769 --> 00:06:31.480
Of course you may ride with me, mother. It would
102
00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:32.620
be my honor.
103
00:06:33.500 --> 00:06:37.000
So mother lowered her bundle into Jaburo's boat and climbed in.
104
00:06:37.779 --> 00:06:39.300
And when Timur gave the signal.
105
00:06:39.980 --> 00:06:42.850
Ready? Set, go!
106
00:06:43.629 --> 00:06:47.709
The race began. The brothers set off paddling as fast
107
00:06:47.750 --> 00:06:51.290
as they could. Water splashed and waves crashed as their
108
00:06:51.329 --> 00:06:54.560
canoes surged across the sea and shot out toward the
109
00:06:54.629 --> 00:06:59.100
next island over. But one of the brothers lagged far behind.
110
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:04.379
Do you know which one? You guessed it, Jaburo. With
111
00:07:04.420 --> 00:07:07.740
his mother's heavy bundle weighing down his canoe, the poor
112
00:07:07.800 --> 00:07:11.240
fellow simply couldn't keep up with his older siblings. So
113
00:07:11.300 --> 00:07:16.120
before long, mother and son were left far, far behind.
114
00:07:16.899 --> 00:07:18.019
I'm sorry, mother.
115
00:07:18.579 --> 00:07:21.490
I know you wanted to witness the action close up,
116
00:07:22.009 --> 00:07:25.790
but I can't paddle quickly enough. At this rate, we'll
117
00:07:25.870 --> 00:07:27.310
never catch up with the others.
118
00:07:27.870 --> 00:07:31.649
Jaburo looked at his mother with a frown. To his surprise,
119
00:07:32.250 --> 00:07:34.529
she looked back at him with a grin.
120
00:07:35.050 --> 00:07:37.009
What's that you say, Jaburo?
121
00:07:37.839 --> 00:07:41.259
We'll never catch up with the others. I wouldn't be
122
00:07:41.350 --> 00:07:43.110
so sure about that, my son.
123
00:07:43.670 --> 00:07:46.449
She gestured toward the big, bulky bundle.
124
00:07:47.009 --> 00:07:52.089
Let's just say I brought along some help.
125
00:07:56.069 --> 00:07:59.350
What do you think Mother packed inside the mysterious package?
126
00:07:59.850 --> 00:08:02.209
We'll find out what it is after a quick break.
127
00:08:02.889 --> 00:08:16.399
Music Welcome back to Circle Round. I'm Rebecca Shear. Today
128
00:08:16.459 --> 00:08:28.079
our story is called The Wind Catcher. Before the break,
129
00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:32.269
ten brothers were holding a boat race. The first man
130
00:08:32.309 --> 00:08:35.210
to get from one island to the next would become chief.
131
00:08:36.029 --> 00:08:37.870
The day of the race, their mother appeared on the
132
00:08:37.889 --> 00:08:41.120
beach carrying a big bundle. She asked each of her
133
00:08:41.179 --> 00:08:43.379
sons if she could ride with them, but they all
134
00:08:43.500 --> 00:08:48.980
said no. Well, all except for Jaburo, her youngest and kindest,
135
00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:53.399
most easygoing son. As the race began, and Jaburo's older
136
00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:56.840
brothers pulled far ahead, Mother loosened the strings of her
137
00:08:56.879 --> 00:09:01.990
bundle and reached inside. Jaburo watched with wonder and confusion
138
00:09:02.549 --> 00:09:05.909
as his mom pulled out two wooden poles, a coil
139
00:09:05.950 --> 00:09:08.950
of rope, and a large piece of cloth.
140
00:09:13.879 --> 00:09:17.039
Um, Mother, what are these things?
141
00:09:17.659 --> 00:09:20.460
The poles? The rope? The cloth?
142
00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:23.159
What are you going to do with this stuff?
143
00:09:23.750 --> 00:09:25.330
Mother arched her eyebrows.
144
00:09:25.769 --> 00:09:30.610
The question, my son, is, what are we going to
145
00:09:30.649 --> 00:09:35.700
do with this stuff? And the answer is, we will
146
00:09:35.820 --> 00:09:36.940
win this race.
147
00:09:37.580 --> 00:09:40.340
Mother stretched out the cloth and held it above her head.
148
00:09:41.029 --> 00:09:44.769
Jaburo noticed the fabric had three sides, like a triangle.
149
00:09:45.289 --> 00:09:48.960
This cloth, Jaburo, is a sail.
150
00:09:49.720 --> 00:09:52.100
A sail? Yes.
151
00:09:52.899 --> 00:09:55.929
I wove it from the strong, sturdy leaves of the
152
00:09:55.990 --> 00:09:57.009
pandanus bush.
153
00:09:57.629 --> 00:09:58.190
I see.
154
00:09:58.730 --> 00:09:59.950
Jaburo cocked his head.
155
00:10:00.460 --> 00:10:02.720
But what does the sail do?
156
00:10:04.019 --> 00:10:05.899
What does the sail do?
157
00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:07.379
Mother grinned.
158
00:10:08.019 --> 00:10:09.220
It gives us.
159
00:10:09.379 --> 00:10:10.759
Wings, my boy.
160
00:10:12.139 --> 00:10:13.019
Watch this.
161
00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:17.009
Jaburo's eyes widened as Mother took the rope and used
162
00:10:17.070 --> 00:10:20.500
it to lash the two wooden poles together. Then she
163
00:10:20.580 --> 00:10:23.480
stood one of the poles up vertically, high toward the sky.
164
00:10:24.059 --> 00:10:27.159
The other pole stuck out horizontally, parallel to the boat.
165
00:10:27.799 --> 00:10:31.610
This here is a mast. And boom.
166
00:10:32.289 --> 00:10:32.789
Mast.
167
00:10:33.470 --> 00:10:34.169
And boom.
168
00:10:34.769 --> 00:10:35.230
Yes!
169
00:10:36.149 --> 00:10:41.629
The mast is vertical. The boom is horizontal. And if
170
00:10:41.690 --> 00:10:45.409
we tie the sail to the mast and boom, the
171
00:10:45.529 --> 00:10:47.149
cloth will fill up with wind.
172
00:10:48.309 --> 00:10:48.909
Like this.
173
00:10:49.750 --> 00:10:53.110
Mother tied the sail to the mast and boom. Immediately,
174
00:10:53.429 --> 00:10:57.370
the three-sided cloth rippled and billowed as it caught the wind.
175
00:10:58.269 --> 00:11:03.149
And just like that, Jaburo's boat, the very first sailboat
176
00:11:03.409 --> 00:11:07.809
the islands had ever seen, went speeding across the swelling waves.
177
00:11:08.429 --> 00:11:13.679
This is amazing, Mother. It's like we sprouted wings. But
178
00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:18.500
the wind, it's so unpredictable today. It keeps changing directions.
179
00:11:19.120 --> 00:11:22.039
What if the breeze pushes us where we don't want
180
00:11:22.139 --> 00:11:22.639
to go?
181
00:11:23.279 --> 00:11:24.779
Mother's eyes glittered.
182
00:11:25.419 --> 00:11:27.659
I'm glad you asked, Jaburo.
183
00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:32.929
Check this out. The wind shifted directions, and Mother moved
184
00:11:32.950 --> 00:11:35.309
the boom from one side of the boat to the other.
185
00:11:35.950 --> 00:11:39.509
When the wind shifted again, Mother repeated this move. Back
186
00:11:39.669 --> 00:11:42.990
and forth she swung the boom, back and forth, back
187
00:11:43.090 --> 00:11:46.000
and forth, and the boat stayed right on course.
188
00:11:46.549 --> 00:11:50.429
You see, son, if you know how to catch the wind,
189
00:11:51.309 --> 00:11:55.169
it'll take you wherever you want to go. But if
190
00:11:55.210 --> 00:11:57.210
you don't know how to catch the wind.
191
00:11:57.830 --> 00:12:00.730
Then it'll take you wherever it wants you to go?
192
00:12:01.450 --> 00:12:02.389
Exactly!
193
00:12:03.129 --> 00:12:06.159
Now, show me what you can do.
194
00:12:06.919 --> 00:12:09.620
The moment Jaburo took control of the mast and boom,
195
00:12:10.059 --> 00:12:13.220
the sail puffed up with air and the boat shot forward.
196
00:12:13.860 --> 00:12:17.559
When the wind changed direction... Jaburo did as his mother instructed.
197
00:12:17.580 --> 00:12:21.059
He moved the boom, and the boat stayed on course.
198
00:12:21.940 --> 00:12:25.200
With the boat swiftly skimming over the waves, Jaburo felt
199
00:12:25.259 --> 00:12:28.830
his heart throb with joy. As he picked up speed,
200
00:12:29.289 --> 00:12:32.929
faster and faster and faster, it wasn't long before he
201
00:12:32.990 --> 00:12:37.350
began passing his older brothers, one by one by one.
202
00:12:37.909 --> 00:12:44.549
Wait a minute. Is that Jaburo? It couldn't be. How
203
00:12:44.570 --> 00:12:50.100
is his boat so fast? So quick. So swift. He
204
00:12:50.179 --> 00:12:52.480
looks like he's flying.
205
00:12:53.559 --> 00:12:57.080
At last, Jaburo caught up with his oldest brother, Timur.
206
00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:00.750
Timur was so strong, he had taken an early lead.
207
00:13:01.370 --> 00:13:04.370
So he was shocked to find his youngest brother suddenly
208
00:13:04.570 --> 00:13:05.970
racing along beside him.
209
00:13:06.710 --> 00:13:11.330
Jaburo, where is your paddle? And what is that newfangled
210
00:13:11.429 --> 00:13:13.129
contraption on your boat?
211
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:16.419
A smile spread across Jaburo's face.
212
00:13:17.539 --> 00:13:21.970
This newfangled contraption, Timur, is a gift from Mother, and
213
00:13:22.009 --> 00:13:24.230
it's going to help me win this race.
214
00:13:24.850 --> 00:13:27.789
Timur gritted his teeth. A gift?
215
00:13:28.629 --> 00:13:33.429
That's not fair. I'm the eldest son. I'm the one
216
00:13:33.490 --> 00:13:34.809
who deserves gifts.
217
00:13:35.289 --> 00:13:40.210
Mild-mannered Jaburo didn't know what to do. Luckily, Mother did.
218
00:13:40.850 --> 00:13:43.409
She flashed Timur her sweetest smile.
219
00:13:44.110 --> 00:13:45.950
You know what, Timur?
220
00:13:47.250 --> 00:13:47.970
You're right.
221
00:13:49.070 --> 00:13:54.769
You are the eldest son. So we will trade. For
222
00:13:54.809 --> 00:13:58.610
the rest of the race, you can ride in Jaburo's boat.
223
00:13:59.409 --> 00:14:04.809
And Jaburo and I will ride in your boat. But first,
224
00:14:05.590 --> 00:14:09.259
let me show you how this boat works. You see
225
00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:12.370
these two poles here? and how one of them is
226
00:14:12.429 --> 00:14:13.110
sticking out like.
227
00:14:13.190 --> 00:14:16.330
Oh, I don't need your help, Mother. I can figure
228
00:14:16.370 --> 00:14:17.309
it out myself.
229
00:14:17.809 --> 00:14:19.330
Timur stood up in his canoe.
230
00:14:19.850 --> 00:14:22.970
Now scram, you two. That boat is mine.
231
00:14:23.870 --> 00:14:26.929
Jaburo and Mother got up and switched
places with Timur.
232
00:14:27.570 --> 00:14:30.970
As the big, burly fellow scrambled into the sailboat, he
233
00:14:31.029 --> 00:14:33.740
shot his mother and brother a withering glare.
234
00:14:34.429 --> 00:14:38.700
All right, folks. Now that that's done, I have a
235
00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:44.019
race to win. So sit back and watch me fly.
236
00:14:45.100 --> 00:14:48.779
And what do you know? Fly he did in the
237
00:14:48.899 --> 00:14:53.750
wrong direction. You see, the wind had changed course. But
238
00:14:53.789 --> 00:14:57.009
Timur didn't know about moving the boom. So as his
239
00:14:57.090 --> 00:15:00.029
sail puffed up with air... The wind pushed his boat
240
00:15:00.259 --> 00:15:03.820
back toward his island, where the race had begun.
241
00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:04.840
Hey!
242
00:15:05.559 --> 00:15:08.559
What's wrong with this thing? Why is it taking me
243
00:15:08.620 --> 00:15:12.080
this way? I want to go the other way! The
244
00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:16.279
other way! How do I turn this around? Help!
245
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:24.200
Help! Timur's voice faded into the distance as Jaburo and
246
00:15:24.320 --> 00:15:28.409
Mother charged ahead. Jaburo paddled harder and faster than ever
247
00:15:29.029 --> 00:15:31.929
and reached the finish line long before any of his
248
00:15:31.990 --> 00:15:36.669
brothers did. As Jaburo sat huffing and puffing and beaming
249
00:15:36.720 --> 00:15:39.840
in the canoe, Mother reached back into her parcel and
250
00:15:39.899 --> 00:15:43.940
pulled out two more items, a crown of flowers and
251
00:15:43.980 --> 00:15:48.000
a seashell necklace. She placed the flowers on Jaburo's head
252
00:15:48.620 --> 00:15:51.419
and hung the shimmering shells around his neck.
253
00:15:52.149 --> 00:15:57.389
Congratulations, my boy! As the winner of the race, you
254
00:15:57.669 --> 00:16:01.850
are the new chief of our island. And like all
255
00:16:01.950 --> 00:16:06.980
chiefs before you, we will give you a new chiefly name.
256
00:16:08.220 --> 00:16:15.279
Jaburo Jelelun. Jaburo the Wind Catcher. May you reign in
257
00:16:15.419 --> 00:16:19.039
peace and prosperity for the rest of your days.
258
00:16:20.559 --> 00:16:23.220
And wouldn't you know it, that's exactly what he did.
259
00:16:24.610 --> 00:16:27.850
According to legend, after years went by and Mother and
260
00:16:27.889 --> 00:16:30.730
her sons grew old and finished their time on this earth,
261
00:16:31.389 --> 00:16:35.450
they all went up to the heavens and became stars.
262
00:16:36.269 --> 00:16:40.070
Mother became Capella, a big, bright star we see in
263
00:16:40.110 --> 00:16:44.850
the night sky. Jabaron became Jalelun, a cluster of stars
264
00:16:44.909 --> 00:16:49.169
close to Capella. And as for hot-headed Timur, well, he
265
00:16:49.210 --> 00:16:53.970
became the reddish star known as Antares. Antares is so
266
00:16:54.169 --> 00:16:57.139
far away from Jalalun that you never see them in
267
00:16:57.179 --> 00:17:00.360
the sky at the same time. That's because when Jaburo
268
00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:04.599
became chief of the island, Timur was so furious and
269
00:17:04.700 --> 00:17:08.019
so envious, he turned his back on his youngest brother
270
00:17:08.579 --> 00:17:13.150
and never went near him again. In the Marshall Islands,
271
00:17:13.509 --> 00:17:17.250
where this story comes from, sailors say that when they
272
00:17:17.349 --> 00:17:21.430
see Timur's star in the sky, the weather will be blustery.
273
00:17:21.740 --> 00:17:26.009
and the seas will be stormy. But when Jabiru's cluster
274
00:17:26.049 --> 00:17:29.950
of stars sparkles above, the weather will be pleasant, and
275
00:17:30.009 --> 00:17:34.630
the seas will be calm, just like the mild-mannered, easy-going
276
00:17:34.670 --> 00:17:38.140
young man whose generous heart helped him catch the wind
277
00:17:39.000 --> 00:17:40.599
and win the race.
278
00:17:40.940 --> 00:17:42.319
The End.
279
00:17:51.019 --> 00:17:54.880
Now it's your turn. Have you ever played the game Pictionary?
280
00:17:55.559 --> 00:17:57.579
You draw something on a piece of paper, and the
281
00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:00.819
people you're playing with try to guess what it is. Well,
282
00:18:00.839 --> 00:18:02.759
today we have a new kind of Pictionary for you.
283
00:18:03.460 --> 00:18:07.569
Sharing Pictionary. Gather up some teammates, whoever's in your house
284
00:18:07.609 --> 00:18:10.869
with you, then take turns drawing pictures of things you've
285
00:18:11.049 --> 00:18:14.269
shared at home. It could be a jar of peanut butter,
286
00:18:14.769 --> 00:18:18.930
a family dog, even a snuggly moment before bedtime. As
287
00:18:18.970 --> 00:18:21.890
each person draws their picture, everyone else should guess what
288
00:18:21.930 --> 00:18:25.039
it is. Once you guess correctly, take a few moments
289
00:18:25.059 --> 00:18:27.019
to talk about a time you shared the thing you drew,
290
00:18:27.539 --> 00:18:32.819
and how it felt when you did. This week's story,
291
00:18:33.019 --> 00:18:36.380
The Wind Catcher, was adapted by me, Rebecca Shear. It
292
00:18:36.420 --> 00:18:40.150
was edited by Amory Seifertson. Circle Round's original music and
293
00:18:40.269 --> 00:18:44.130
sound design is by Eric Shambalonis. Our artist is Sabina Hahn.

creating Circle Round is hearing from listeners like you. Circle
314
00:20:06.089 --> 00:20:08.569
Round fans have been telling us about their favorite Circle
315
00:20:08.609 --> 00:20:11.400

317
00:20:13.400 --> 00:20:18.390
Hi, I'm Althea. I come from Colorado Grand Junction. My
318
00:20:18.450 --> 00:20:22.309
favorite Circle Round story is Fiona and the Fairies because
319
00:20:22.369 --> 00:20:26.230
I like the part when Fiona gets carried away by
320
00:20:26.269 --> 00:20:26.789
the fairies.
321
00:20:27.329 --> 00:20:30.569
Hello, my name is Aiden. I live in Illinois.
322
00:20:31.069 --> 00:20:35.549
My favorite Circle Round story is The Sea is Salty
323
00:20:35.890 --> 00:20:39.009
because I like how Rosaldo steals the jars.
324
00:20:39.900 --> 00:20:43.539
My name's Oren. I like to listen to Circle Round
325
00:20:43.559 --> 00:20:47.880
with my two daughters. And I really like the story
326
00:20:48.099 --> 00:20:52.440
called Taste of Honey because everybody gets real quiet and
327
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:56.109
listens real carefully while we listen to that story. Thank
