The White Heron

Adapted from Sarah Orne Jewett | Abridged & Narrated by Querida Funck

In this lyrical retelling of Sarah Orne Jewett’s 1886 classic, a young girl living in rural Maine must choose between loyalty to the natural world and the approval of those around her.

This True Voice Shorts edition blends Jewett’s original text with thoughtful abridgment and new reflections, illuminating themes of solitude, wonder, and moral courage through a modern lens.

Querida Funck’s intimate narration brings added depth and resonance, honoring the heart of the original while enhancing its emotional clarity for contemporary listeners. A brief, moving story that speaks to the still, strong voices within us all.
