Bedtime Buckaroos: “Grandmother Spider”

Join us Monday evenings as we spark imaginations by hosting virtual bedtime stories with “Bedtime Buckaroos,” presented by Paycom.

Story time plays a vital role in introducing children to the magic of books. Each week we’ll feature a new engaging Western story read by local authors, community leaders, traditional storytellers and Museum staff.

This week, listen to Diana Fields, the Chief Program Officer at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, read “Grandmother Spider Brings the Sun: A Cherokee Story” written by Geri Keams and illustrated by James Bernardin.

“After Possum and Buzzard fail in their attempts to steal a piece of the sun, Grandmother Spider succeeds in bringing light to the animals on her side of the world.”
