This unique and truly special approach to storytelling uses string figures to tell a story. Some of the stories are traditional ones that have been collected over the years. Some are adapted from old tales to become more interesting to current listeners, and some use traditional string figures to tell new, contemporary stories.

Each of the 19 stories is accompanied by step-by-step illustrated instructions for the string figures.
