WTH Story Corner

Written by: Lea-Anne Peach & Anna Marie Riley
  • Summary

  • Here we explore the quirky, bizarre, and wonderful world of children's literature. Each episode we find a book or story that will entertain and delight you (and maybe your child). What the Hell Story Corner is a podcast for parents and educators, but be sure little ears aren't listening in. Lea-Anne and Anna get honest about these books and the issues they explore, which can lead to 'adult' language. You'll never look at kiddie lit the same!

  • The Wretched Stone (Chris Van Allsburg)
    Jan 24 2025

    Another master class in breathtaking artwork framing a truly bizarre story (if we can even call it that). Is it an allegory for television? Is it just entertainment for adults who took gummies before reading a bedtime story? We'll find out in this episode!

  • Whoosh (Barton/Tate) and Mr. Ferris and his Wheel (Gibbs Davis/Ford)
    Jan 10 2025

    Terrible recommendation technology, the necessity of failed inventions, and turn-of-the-century male preoccupation with size take center stage in Anna and Lea-Anne's exploration of children's biography!

  • Just Because (Matthew McConaughey/Renée Kurilla)-the real one
    Dec 12 2024

    Ooohkay. After uploading the B-roll, here's the edit. Sorry about that!!!


    Celebrity vanity project or existentialist musings of a child whisperer? (Hint: it's the first one) Anna and Lea-Anne have fun picking apart this plotless series of musings about the contradictions in life. They don't apologize for the critique, but they do apologize for the fact that Anna should be recording in her office instead of a room where the sound echoes off the walls)
