Retold by Don Nicholas Read by Pat and Becky Stone [IMAGE]( Once upon a time, in a quaint little town nestled between rolling hills and a meandering river, the residents lived simple lives. They were content, but their culinary repertoire was limited to the vegetables they could grow in their gardens. They had never tasted anything as extraordinary as stone soup. One sunny morning, a curious traveler with a twinkle in his eye arrived at the town square. His name was Mr. Theodore Tumbleweed, and he was known for his extraordinary culinary skills. The townsfolk watched in fascination as Mr. Tumbleweed set up a makeshift kitchen in the center of the square. Pots and pans clanged together, and a magical aroma filled the air. “Good people of this charming town,” Mr. Tumbleweed called out with a friendly smile. “I have a special treat for you today. We shall make a soup like none you’ve ever tasted before—a stone soup!” The townsfolk exchanged puzzled glances. Stone soup? They had never heard of such a thing. But their curiosity got the better of them, and they gathered around the traveler, eager to see what he would do. Mr. Tumbleweed reached into his bag and produced three smooth, round stones. He placed them in a large pot filled with water that was bubbling over an open fire. As the water heated up, he said, “Now, for the magic ingredient, we need just a pinch of salt.” He pulled out a small pouch and sprinkled the salt into the pot.
