He has given thousands of us busy teachers and librarians a gold mine of ready-made plays our students clamor to perform over and over. Aaron's new collection never fails to delight and enthrall. While the experts argue about the 'right' way to teach reading, Aaron is in the middle of the action, inspiring our kids to read aloud with fluency, comprehension, expression, and best of all, joy." -- Judy Freeman, Author, "More Books Kids Will Sit Still For" "Aaron Shepard has done it! Folktales on Stage is a complete package of easy-to-perform, dynamic reader's theater scripts. Pack your passport and take a trip around the world. You and your actors will have a world of fun." -- Dr. Caroline Feller Bauer, Author, "Presenting Reader's Theater" and "New Handbook for Storytellers" "What a gift for the classroom teacher! Pure reading pleasure and not a single script that can't be used with small groups or an entire class. Performance reading builds fluency, but Aaron Shepard's gift for storytelling will also build appreciation. This collection will be a rich addition to reading programs in our balanced literacy classrooms." -- Susan Finney, Author, "Independent Reading Activities That Keep Kids Learning While You Teach Small Groups"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Folk Story Plays for Children With the growth of interest in children the power of their dramatic instinct and its possible value in education has come to be recognized. But there is at present very little material arranged in dramatic form to meet the demand for plays for children. The plays in this volume were drawn from the folklore of several countries with the idea that in subject matter and sentiment they have already proved satisfactory, while in language they have been made as nearly as possible like the language of Children. They have been worked out with property lists and stage directions so that the manager, who is usually an already busy teacher or mother, will find the work as complete as possible. The materials called for are simple and within the reach of nearly all. Paints, paper and a few yards of the cheapest cloth would be sufficient. The color is by far the most important factor in the effect. If no one is skilful enough to make the drop-scenes some plain curtains hung in the background will be very satisfactory. The plays could be easily managed by the children themselves with the minimum of supervision and it is hoped that they will lead the way for the children to arrange their own plays from the stories they like best.
