About this title

Synopsis

Quite simply, Creative Storytelling is one of the best and most comprehensive books on telling stories. This newly expanded, beautifully illustrated, step-by-step guide tells readers about sources and types of stories; how to gear stories toward children of different ages and interests; techniques for remembering and adapting stories; and how to use personal experiences to create new stories. One chapter takes a story through the complete storytelling process, with specific tips on tone, pacing, and atmosphere. A special section examines how storytelling leads to a wide range of other creative activities. This edition also features a new section on storytelling and environmentalism, with information on creating stories that foster environmental awareness.

About the Author

Jack Maguire has taught creative writing and communications at the college level, and written and produced cable TV programs. He lives in Highland, New York.
