Today we have something extra special for you here on Dorktales Storytime. We’re sharing A Very Suspicious Island, the very first episode of a brand-new podcast called Tales from the Cloud Sea.
This funny, completely made-up-as-they-go adventure follows Amelia and Arthur, two kids who discover a secret in their attic that whisks them away to a world of floating sky islands, pirate airships, clanky robots, and all sorts of strange and silly characters.
And the best part? Their wild world is brought to life by a talented crew of comedians, actors, and storytellers who are masters at making things up on the spot. They create big laughs, surprising twists, and unforgettable characters out of nothing but their imaginations.
CREDITS: A big thank you to the Tales from the Cloud Sea crew for letting us share this episode with you. You can hop aboard their Skytanic anytime and sail off on brand-new journeys by following Tales from the Cloud Sea on your favorite podcast app. Learn more, go to: https://www.talesfromthecloudsea.com/

GROWNUPS: Dorktales Storytime is more than a Kids and family stories for kids podcast. Every visit to our Once Upon a Time world invites kids to discover reimagined fairy tales, fables, Greek myths, mysteries, fantasy adventures, pirate adventures, bedtime stories, Halloween stories, dinosaur stories, and inspiring stories about historical figures and STEAM pioneers. We believe a well-told story brings families together, opens the door to meaningful conversations, and helps every child know they belong and their imagination can change the world.
