The Bewitched Canoe is a French Canadian tale of voyageurs who were unfortunate enough to have made a deal with the Devil,

An old folk tale from Japan about Little Peachling and his travels.

Every Father's Day, no matter how busy the day is with our huge family, I always find the time and the place to be alone, to say a prayer for you and to thank you.

I have prayed when my dear ones starved and needed the labor of my once strong hands. Old woman, remember my last words,If you pray, work too!

Back before the days of computers, television, telephones and all these wonders of modern science and technology, the family homes of the common folk were filled with song.
