Welcome to the final part of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story! Last time, Hai brought a soul-blossom seed back from the realm of dreams… a seed that can bring Mei back to life – if only Hai can get it to bloom. Day after day Hai tends to the seedling, to no avail… until he discovers the missing link: the plant requires a blood tithe. As Hai sleeps, the soul blossom grows… Today, in the 12th and final part of Pearl, we find out how our story ends.For a full bilingual transcript, go to: www.pandacubstories.com/season-1-legends-myths/2019/3/7/s1e18-pearl12*ABOUT THE SHOW:Panda Cub Stories (熊猫宝宝故事会) is a bilingual children’s podcast with a big vision: to help raise multilingual and multicultural children through storytelling!

We ended last week’s episode with Hai’s dream – or is it a dream? – leading him to a mysterious, gray colored land. And who was the mysterious figure in black? What could this possibly have to do with saving Mei?  We continue our story today, in Part 11 of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story.For a full bilingual transcript, go to: https://www.pandacubstories.com/season-1-legends-myths/2019/3/7/s1e17-pearl11*ABOUT THE SHOW:Panda Cub Stories (熊猫宝宝故事会) is a bilingual children’s podcast with a big vision: to help raise multilingual and multicultural children through storytelling!

We ended our last episode with a bit of a cliffhanger – Mei had taken her seventh sister’s advice and gives Hai her 海之心, her sea-heart. We left our story with Mei’s heart literally in Hai’s hands… and Mei a lifeless figure of stone. Is our tale to end in tragedy?

Last time, Mei had just revealed her identity to Hai – that she was the rose-carp he had once saved, and the youngest daughter of the dragon king. Hai must believe her, of his own accord… in order for Mei to become human and stay on land. What did Hai do? Did he believe? We continue our story today, in Part 9 of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story！For a full bilingual transcript, go to: www.pandacubstories.com/season-1-legends-myths/2019/3/7/s1e15-pearl9*ABOUT THE SHOW:Panda Cub Stories (熊猫宝宝故事会) is a bilingual children’s podcast with a big vision: to help raise multilingual and multicultural children through storytelling!

In our last episode,  the dastardly Sha had captured the rose carp (who weknow is actually Mei, the youngest daughter of the dragon king). Luckily, Hai was able to save the rose carp from harm – having just traded his entire days catch for this odd but friendly fish. Though Hai doesn’t know the rose carp is actually Mei… he does feel a sense of familiarity… he just can’t put his finger on what! Now that Hai has rescued the rose carp, what will he do? Today, we find out in Part 5 of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story.For a full bilingual transcript, go to: https://www.pandacubstories.com/season-1-legends-myths/2019/3/7/s1e11-pearl5ABOUT THE SHOW:Panda Cub Stories (熊猫宝宝故事会) is a bilingual children’s podcast with a big vision: to help raise multilingual and multicultural children through storytelling!
