    The world of literature can take you many places, from a cell in the prison of Château d'If to the halls of Netherfield and the skies of Neverland.

    Books open different realities, and that's something everyone should have access to too. Which is why resources like the Idaho Talking Book Service are so important.

    The audiobook library provides hundreds of hours of free narration to Idahoans who are unable to read standard print. Rachel Welker, the Idaho Talking Book Service program specialist, joined Idaho Matters to talk more about this service.

    Every year, one small instrument draws hundreds of people together in Yellow Pine, Idaho.

    For more than 30 years, the harmonica has played an important role in this mountain community, bringing people together to celebrate not just music but a unique history with the Yellow Pine Harmonica Festival.

    And in anticipation of this event organizers are hosting a fundraiser to help support it.

    Longtime supporters of the festival Brent Palmatier, Jason Stephens and TeJay Rogers joined Idaho Matters to talk more about this effort.

    Each Monday afternoon, a special group of dancers gather in downtown boise for an hour of music and movement.

    And while the participants of this class are not training to be on stage, they are working towards something important: a renewed connection with their bodies. Something that many people diagnosed with Parkinson's disease feel they lose.

    Which is why the instructors at Dance for Parkinson's Idaho dedicate one afternoon a week to fostering this connection.

    Liz Keller, director and lead teaching artist at Dance for Parkinsons Idaho, and Georgiann Raimondi, board president of the nonprofit, joined Idaho Matters to talk more.

    Boise is known as the City of Trees, and despite being in a desert, it has a fairly substantial urban forest.

    More and more researchers are finding that trees aren't just beautiful to look at: they also provide health benefits, from lowering blood pressure to helping babies grow and thrive. And cities and companies are working together to create healthier environments by planting trees.

    Lance Davisson is the Executive Director and Cofounder at Treasure Valley Canopy Network, and Geoffrey Donovan is a research forester with the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station. They'll be talking about the health benefits of trees, Wednesday April 10, as part of St. Luke's lecture series on climate and health, and they joined us for a preview.
