Summary: De bonnes histoires!
Review: Je suis arrivée à ce merveilleux livre en cherchant des livres sur les jeux de ficelle. Je suis ravie! Il y a des jeux de ficelle...oui! Et avec des histoires. Le livre contient des histoires à dessiner, à raconter avec des poupée gigognes ou avec les doigts. Vous ne serez pas déçu!

Summary: Wonderful resource for short and unusual tales
Review: Storytellers are always in need of short but engaging stories to round out a program. Anne Pellowski's THE STORY VINE will not disappoint anyone looking for these types of tales. There are stories using string, trouble dolls, thumb pianos and even sand! Pellowski, as a storyteller who travels all over the world for UNICEF, is uniquely qualified to write such a book. I've had the pleasure of hearing her and meeting her in person, and these stories can frame a multicultural story session nicely. She used a story from each of the ethnic groups to arrive in the area, starting with the Native Americans and ending with the southeast Asian refugees. The use of the props is not at all distracting, as they can be at times, but integral to the telling of each of these stories.

If you want some "quickie" stories, if you want unusual tales, or if you want to try to use props effectively in storytelling, this is what you want to see.
