If you ever wondered where storytellers come from...wonder no more. This is an old recording of my father telling me a fractured version of Little Red Riding Hood when I was four of five.
I think this story was recorded in the summer of ’72. I had two nicknames as a child. One was Kitty Cat and the other one was Dickle. Kitty Cat I understood, but I have no idea why I was called Dickle…no one does. I’m often asked if I was told stories when I was a kid, this little episode from my childhood answers that question definitively.
