<p>Dragon enjoyed the popcorn Trenton the Tractor shared, and returns to the farm for some more.</p>
<h6><em>Hello everyone!  We hope you enjoyed our new stories this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Sometimes we like to listen to our favorites again. Please enjoy “A Tasty Treat,” and we’ll be back with a new story on Monday!</em></h6>
<p><strong>Narrator:</strong> Male</p>
<p><strong>Story Begins: </strong>8:54</p>
<p><em><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">A Tasty Treat</span></em> Excerpt:</p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">A cool breeze danced around the colorful trees, swirling red, orange, </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">and yellow leaves off their branches. They drifted along, spinning in </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">circles, this way and that, before they finally reached the ground. The </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">breeze continued on, through the enchanted forest, and into Dragon’s </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">cozy cave.</span></p>
<p><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">Dragon rested, nose out from under the colorful quilt. The cool breeze </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">wafted over and tickled it. Dragon felt the cool air and shook the </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">blanket right off. Awake now, Dragon hopped out of bed. There was so</span> <span dir="ltr" role="presentation">much fun to be had, and it was past time to get started.</span></p></blockquote>
