“Long before I wrote stories, I listened for stories. Listening for them is something more acute than listening to them. I suppose it’s an early form of participation in what goes on. Listening children know stories are there. When their elders sit and begin, children are just waiting and hoping for one to come out, like a mouse from its hole.” – Eudora Welty
“If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.” – Albert Einstein
“Reading to children is not just about teaching them words, it’s about showing them the magic of stories and the endless possibilities that words can bring.”
Each of us has a unique way to tell the story. It is not just the words on the page it is how we bring it to life.
Thank you, Judy for the book.
