Story Time Podcast for Kids

“When I became a parent, I passed the love of reading on to my children. My daughter and I have co-authored over 30 books for children and young adults, and our shared passion for the power of storytelling, literacy, and the arts remains fervent,” said Andrews in an interview for CBS. “It is our hope that the stories and ideas we share on ‘Julie’s Library’ will provide family listening pleasure, inspire meaningful conversations, and be a trusted resource for literary enjoyment and learning.”

“Julie’s Library” holds promises to take children on a journey that makes kids laugh, wonder, and dream amid challenging times. Enjoy this sweet escape with the whole family and join Julie Andrews’ storytime for free on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts.
