Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Storytelling in Early Childhood is a captivating book which explores the multiple dimensions of storytelling and story acting and shows how they enrich language and literacy learning in the early years. Foregrounding the power of children’s own stories in the early and primary years, it provides evidence that storytelling and story acting, a pedagogic approach first developed by Vivian Gussin Paley, affords rich opportunities to foster learning within a play-based and language-rich curriculum. The book explores a number of themes and topics, including: the role of imaginary play and its dynamic relationship to narrative; how socially situated symbolic actions enrich the emotional, cognitive and social development of children; how the interrelated practices of storytelling and dramatisation enhance language and literacy learning, and contribute to an inclusive classroom culture; the challenges practitioners face in aligning their understanding of child literacy and learning with a narrow, mandated curriculum which focuses on measurable outcomes. Driven by an international approach and based on new empirical studies, this volume further advances the field, offering new theoretical and practical analyses of storytelling and story acting from complementary disciplinary perspectives. This book is a potent and engaging read for anyone intrigued by Paley’s storytelling and story acting curriculum, as well as those practitioners and students with a vested interest in early years literacy and language learning. With contributions from Vivian Gussin Paley, Patricia ‘Patsy‘ Cooper, Dorothy Faulkner, Natalia Kucirkova, Gillian Dowley McNamee and Ageliki Nicolopoulou.

Book excerpt: "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.
