Book Description
This is a book for anyone who tells stories-teachers, parents, and especially children’s librarians. Although the storyteller must draw during the presentation, artistic ability is not necessary for success. All stories and poems in this collection of stories and poems with chalk-board drawings have been tested in library story hours and in visits to schools. Several are intended for the pre-kindergarten age group, and most are suitable for older children as well.
Editorial Reviews
Review
A fine book. The drawings, while simple, are interesting…The stories flow easily and are worth telling.
A particularly useful resource for the beginning storyteller…Should also find an appreciative audience with teachers and librarians who work with very young children.
This collection of chalktalk stories is a delight to share. — Roberta Larson, Tacoma Public Schools
