<p><strong>Ages 4-8</strong><br />Learn how to do storytelling with these creative examples…</p><p> </p><p><strong>The Biggest Story (H) – Kane Miller</strong><br />Errol’s mom is too busy to tell him a story so she tells him he should try to make one up himself, but as soon as he starts, all the creatures in the garden – and beyond! – overhear and all want to be the hero! A celebration of imagination, packed full of humor, energy, and adventure.</p><p> </p><p><strong>The Prince and the Witch and the Thief and the Bears (H) – Kane Miller</strong><br />When Jamie and his Dad create a bedtime story, a predictable fairy tale soon transforms into an energetic, hilarious story of bears and princes jostling with broccoli-wielding frogs, evil-eyed ninja witches and jewel thief princesses.
