What's behind all these stories?

. . . dreaming, freeing up imagination, listening to pictures.  I felt like I was sitting on a fence watching all these stories evolve,  when I realized that  they had been incubated in my brain for a long time.  And over many months, I reconnected with a colleague that I once worked with on radio.  John is his name - he was a newscaster and had  his own dj show, and I had my own talk show. Over the years, he became a production professional. His gift for enhancing the stories with sound effects give the stories a magical boost of imagination.

TITLES FOR SUMU STORIES CD #1
Hooray! The stories are out of the gate.  SUMU (pronounced Soo Moo) is the name my grandchildren gave me.  So with that name, so goes "Stories by Sumu."  As you will notice, the number down in the right hand corner indicates #1 - or #2  or #3. The stories in #1 include Freeda, the hippopotamus,  Amadeus,the little pianist, Buzzing

Belinda, Hanna and Hannan, the love ducks, Balsadarand Maria with the tiny sea turtles, Sniffy Poo, the trouble-maker squirrel, Jasper the donkey meets Bella the goose, and Archie the caterpillar.  All are about two and a half minutes.  All the stories have sound effects by John that helps the listener - be it a child, parent or teacher, to really get to know the characters of the story.
