About this listen

RUSTY THE RINGTAIL: A MAGICAL ARIZONA ADVENTURE — When the sun dips behind the Mingus Mountains and the streets of Jerome go quiet, a secret world awakens in the abandoned shafts of the Little Daisy Mine. Rusty the Ringtail is the "Sheriff of the Underground," a diligent night watchman dedicated to keeping the historic copper mines in pristine order. With his large eyes and long, striped tail, Rusty ensures no mischievous rodents disturb the peace of the tunnels, but everything changes one night when the air fills with static electricity and a soft blue glow appears in the gloom.

Enter Jimmy, a shimmering ghost burro who hauled ore in these very tunnels eighty years ago. Together, this unlikely pair of partners embarks on magical adventures that soar far beyond the mountain, creating an immersive "Whimsical Western" journey that spans from Cleopatra Hill to the red rocks of Sedona and the black abyss of the Grand Canyon.

This premium audio experience celebrates the rugged beauty and rich history of the Southwest through cinematic sound design—where you can hear the "clop-clop" of ghostly hooves and the "swoosh" of stardust trails—all brought to life by professional narration that captures Jimmy's "sagebrushy" wisdom and Rusty's brave personality. It is a perfect blend of Arizona history and folklore wrapped in a modern fairytale, making it an ideal choice for bedtimes, classrooms, or family road trips through the Verde Valley.

Join Rusty and Jimmy as they prove that while the world is much bigger than a mine shaft, there's no place quite like home.
