Book Description
The stories which are given in the following pages are for the most part those which I have found to be best liked by the children to whom I have told these and others. I have tried to reproduce the form in whihc I actually tell them--although that invariably varies with every repetition--feeling that it would be of greater value to another story-teller than a more closely literary form. My hope is that this book may be of use to those who have much to do with children. -- Preface.

Book Description
Storytelling is one of the oldest and most essential skills known to humankind, a timeless parenting tool that helps families celebrate life’s joys, navigate its challenges, and raise healthy, well-adjusted kids. Stories help children manage their emotions, empathize with others, and better understand the complex world we live in. More importantly, storytelling cultivates a rich and meaningful bond between storyteller and listener, building intimacy and trust between parent and child. In this delightful book, Silke Rose West and Joseph Sarosy—early childhood educators with thousands of storytelling hours between them—distill the key ingredients of storytelling into a surprisingly simple method that can make anyone an expert storyteller. Their intuitive technique uses events and objects from your child’s daily life to make storytelling easy and accessible. By shifting the focus from crafting a narrative to strengthening your relationship with your child, this book will awaken skills you never knew you had. Complete with practical advice, helpful prompts, and a touch of science to explain how stories enrich our lives in so many ways, How to Tell Stories to Children is a must-read for parents, grandparents and educators.

Book Description
Whether presenting their versions of real events or making up tales of adventure and discovery, children enchant us with their stories. But the value of those stories goes beyond their charm. Storytelling is an essential form through which children interpret their own experiences and communicate their view of the world. Each narrative presented by a child is a brushstroke on an evolving self-portrait - a self-portrait the child can reflect on, refer to, and revise. In The Stories Children Tell, developmental psychologist Susan Engels examines the methods and meanings of children's narratives. She offers a fascinating look at one of the most exciting areas in modern psychology and education. What is really going on when a child tells or writes a story? Engel's insights into this provocative question are drawn from the latest research findings and dozens of actual children's tales - compelling, funny, sometimes disturbing stories often of unexpected richness and beauty. In The Stories Children Tell, Susan Engel examines: - the different functions of storytelling - the way the storytelling process changes as children develop - the contributions of parents and peers to storytelling - the different types of stories children tell - the development of a child's narrative voice - the best way of nurturing a child's storytelling skills Throughout these discussions, Engel presents compelling evidence for what is perhaps her most intriguing idea: that in constructing stories, children are constructing themselves.

Book Description
A New York Times/New York Public Library Best Illustrated Children's Book of 2022 ★ Everyone knows how "Little Red Riding Hood" goes. But Grandpa keeps getting the story all wrong, with hilarious results! "Once upon a time, there was a little girl called Little Yellow Riding Hood—" "Not yellow! It's Red Riding Hood!" So begins the story of a grandpa playfully recounting the well-known fairytale—or his version, at least—to his granddaughter. Try as she might to get him back on track, Grandpa keeps on adding things to the mix, both outlandish and mundane! The end result is an unpredictable tale that comes alive as it's being told, born out of imaginative play and familial affection. This spirited picture book will surprise and delight from start to finish, while reminding readers that storytelling is not only a creative act of improvisation and interaction, but also a powerful pathway for connection and love. Telling Stories Wrong was written by Gianni Rodari, widely regarded as the father of modern Italian children's literature. It exemplifies his great respect for the intelligence of children and the kind of work he did as an educator, developing numerous games and exercises for children to engage and think beyond the status quo, imagining what happens after the end of a familiar story, or what possibilities open up when a new ingredient is introduced. This book is illustrated with great affection by the illustrious artist Beatrice Alemagna (Child of Glass), who counts Gianni Rodari as one of her "spiritual fathers."

Book Description
"It enters on a mission of cheerfulness that has our best wishes...The art of storytelling is one of the most delightful accomplishments. Miss Bryant's book shall increase the interest in cultivating it." -The Unitarian Register "She is an expert on the likes and dislikes of small boys and girls." -The Christian Advocate "An attractive, handy-sized book which will be very interesting to all teachers and mothers. Miss Bryant is uncommonly well qualified to explain this art to others by virtue of her long experience as a teller of stories to audiences of young people and as a lecturer upon methods to their elders. How Miss Bryant appeals to her hearers is evidenced by one rather unusual experience. Her first professional engagement was with a large club in the suburbs of Boston, by whom she was very happily received. The next season she was engaged again - and also the following. Finally, the club made a practice of voting, at the annual meeting, 'to have Miss Bryant next year.' Other engagements of a similar sort have been in many places in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and Maryland. In most of these states, too, Miss Bryant has spoken before state institutes and teachers clubs." -The Interior "A very clever presentation of the psychology of the art of telling a story. The book contains many suitable stories which will serve the purpose both of entertainment and education, and shows how to adapt to different grades of children's intelligence the stories which are too long or too difficult." -Publishers Weekly "Suggestive to mothers and teachers. Many sample stories are included." -The Outlook "Will guide the inexperienced into the art of storytelling." -The PTA Magazine "Every teacher who can tell a story has in her possession a magic wand by which inattention may be overcome, quiet restored or won, lessons sent home to hearts and minds, conscience stimulated and character built. Every teacher may learn to tell a story....How to Tell Stories to Children will give a basis for study. Then practice and more practice, with the frank criticism of other teachers, will develop the art. To gain the ability to tell a story well is worth real sacrifice on the part of any teacher. Can you make little faces glow with pleasure, eyes open wide with interest and grow serious over the victory or defeat of the story children? To be able to do it is worth the price you may have to pay." -The Church School Journal CONTENTS INTRODUCTION CHAPTER I THE PURPOSE OF STORY-TELLING IN SCHOOL CHAPTER II SELECTION OF STORIES TO TELL CHAPTER III ADAPTATION OF STORIES FOR TELLING CHAPTER IV HOW TO TELL THE STORY CHAPTER V SOME SPECIFIC SCHOOLROOM USES STORIES SELECTED AND ADAPTED FOR TELLING ESPECIALLY FOR KINDERGARTEN AND CLASS I.
