"The Frankly Impossible Weight of Han" by Maria Dong

"The Frankly Impossible Weight of Han" by Maria Dong, narrated by Wil As long as we've existed, humans have told each other stories to understand and interpret the world around us. There are as many different myths about the sun and the moon as there are different cultures and mythmakers, in some places, even the wind gets a name and a backstory from the ancient artists who sought to understand our natural world.I've always been drawn to the stories that seek to explain and understand the world inside of us, the world we live in every day, that is so profound and real to us, that nobody else can see. And today, on It's Storytime, I get to tell you one of those stories. It's timely and relevant. It is, among other things, about grief, and loss, and the Frankly Impossible Weight of Han.
