"The students are captivated by the storytelling and
savour every moment. Through the sheer enjoyment of the presentation, they
forget that they are learning!"
Paulette Holden, teacher at Meyokumin
Although these handouts were designed for a workshop I lead for teachers called
"Storytelling for Numeracy and Scientific Inquiry" others may find them useful
too. Feel free to use them.

For Your Collection |
Undaunted Enchantments $20
A double CD set of faerie tales - not the cleaned up versions, but early versions of some of your favourite tales from childhood. I
tell Aschenputtel, an early German Cinderella, and Petrosinella, a Neapolitan story similar to Rapunzel. Also featured are Dawn Blue, Bethany Ellis, M. Jennie Frost, Pearl Ann Gooding, Kathy Jessup, and Marie Anne McClean.
The Stranger Who Snored: An Intercultural Folktale Exploration by Renée Englot $15
One story, of a stranger who visits, breaks a taboo and improves a community forever after, told fifteen ways! As part of a project with immigrant and refugee tellers, this tale was transplanted to fourteen countries from its native, Sierra Leone. A fascinating read. Great for use with immigrant and refugee groups, family literacy organizations, and classrooms.
TALES on the Wind $20
A double CD set featuring Alberta tellers sharing some of their favourite stories. My story "Treasure in the Sky" is one of the stories.
