These wonderful world tales are all selected from the highly acclaimed 147 Traditional Stories for Primary School Children to Retell, a storytelling resource used by teachers around the globe. In this collection intended for home use, the focus is on tales for children ages 4 to 6. The stories may be read, told, and retold, and then explored with the whole family. They offer a rich vein of world heritage, giving your family a doorway into the wonderful world of traditional tales. Storyteller Chris Smith presents traditional oral stories from a variety of historical, cultural, and world sources, featuring stories retold, based on traditional tales and related in the voice of a storyteller; tales that are short, simple, and easy to learn; stories that parents can read and tell and children can then tell themselves; stories for bedtime, family occasions, car journeys, and get-togethers; and oral storytelling for home to build children’s confidence in their own voices.
