“Hello! I just wanted to take a moment to share how grateful I am as a mom for all the Sparkle Stories. One thing I am pleasantly surprised about is how much I enjoy the stories, how much I learn as mom about how to create rhythm in our days...” ~ Lauren (mom) and August (age 4)

"I love the new Dory Horde so much. It’s the first thing I do on Friday when I wake up — it’s so exciting! Does David do all the voices by himself, besides commentary? If so, that’s SO cool!" ~ Cora age 10, California, USA

"We have been enjoying your stories for months and find them so deeply nourishing for children and adults alike." ~ The Ambrose Family, ME

Sparkle Stories are engaging, nurturing, and value-rich stories that I adore listening to with my children. They've grown up with David's voice and his carefully crafted characters. ~ Claire

“Thanks so much for sharing the live stories. We have not missed a single one! It has been such a gift during this time at home. I feel like David’s voice will be remembered as an important narrator of our girls’ childhoods. ~Greta

I wanted to say a specific thank you for the new Ella & Ollie series. Ollie happens to be the name of my youngest son — so he is especially excited about this series — another homeschooled boy about his age who moves to the country (a move we made a couple years ago). ~ Nisa

We have been Sparkle Story listeners for years, and as my kids get older I’ve been worried the day will come when we may outgrow the stories. We are so excited about this series about older kids, just in time for my daughter’s 10th birthday! ~Renee

"Our family and many of our friends love the gentle, approachable way you tell stories about real world fears. We've found comfort in "Deny and the Could-bes", "Helpers", "Sweetness", and "Prince" about unexpected events. ~Vonita"

We've been listening to Sparkle Stories since my son was three. We started with The Willowbee Tree and Martin & Sylvia. He turns 8 next month and now he enjoys So Many Fairies and particularly By Thistle by Thimble. ~Abby

We LOVE Sparkle stories so much! We use them for quiet times when our hands are busy and even for helping my very active five-year-old to have something wonderful to listen to while eating breakfast. ~Yvette
