In this special fictional episode we learn how one small act of kindness can spread through a whole community. The story is the origin story of gummy bears in the Land of Qook-a-Lackas. But it is also about community and inclusiveness! Every single person in a community plays an important role and has the power to help others. In this episode, LKBH Host, Todd Loyd, reads the parts of Kenley (a parent Qook-a-Lacka) and Qwintin (a neighbor Qook-a-Lacka). We were excited to be joined by real-life friends, who bring this special fictional episode to life. You'll hear the voices of some friends who are currently part of ABC's Alaska Daily — Meredith Holzman, Matt Malloy, and Pablo Castelblanco — as well as the voice of Nadiyah Dorsey, a veteran of stage and screen, and the voice of Christy Pusz-Decatur, long-time Broadway actress and the creative producer of the Little Kids, Big Hearts podcast. Also enjoy the original song, "Spread the Love" by Bill English. Listen to the episode and keep the learning going with our free, fun education resources, available online at playsparkler.org/podcast!
