In the second half of the Batt-Cave from Sweden where the days are long and full of light, Tanya, Pete and Batt-lamb share a story from Siberia about how hare brought light to a very dark world - a story for those experiencing the southern mid winter. Pete also shares a small refrain from a Swedish 70's classic all about summer and picking smöltron (wild strawberries) that was written by Mats Paulson. This song was taught to us by two Swedish women whom we met on our travels that we shared the straweberries we found in the forest with.

Tanya, Pete and Batt-lamb continue on their world storytelling adventure and are joined in Sweden by Greger (and Lena) who are long time fans of the Batt- Cave. This story is musical remake of a traditional Swedish folktale about making your wishes come true. Greger's wish comes true on this podcast - he and Batt-lamb sing a duet 'Baa, baa vita lamb' - the swedish version of 'Baa, baa black sheep.'

This episode was recorded in Sutri, Italy with the wonderful UK storyteller Xanthe Gresham - Knight. (Tanya and Xanthe were on their way to FEST - the Federation of European Storytellers Conference).

Batt-lamb is thrilled to help Xanthe tell a story with a sheep in it, and three other animals who set out to seek a holy man to help with their coughs.

Turns out that companionship is a cure all for many ailments.
