Download or read book Best Stories to Tell to Children Classic Reprint written by Sara Cone Bryant and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Best Stories to Tell to Children It is the belief of the publishers, here and in England, that some of the stories ought to be printed separately from these books on method, for the more ready ac cess of children themselves and those whose interest is of a wholly untechnical sort. This is the more de sirable because stories which are especially adapted to be told are equally charming for reading aloud or to one's self. The converse is not true: stories written to be read are rarely suitable for the story-teller's art until they have been skilfully adapted. In other words, those tales which can be and have been told with suc cess are in a sense the chosen few; they, of all the world's stories, are most charming to hear or to read.

Download or read book Children s Stories written by J. Berg Esenwein and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Children's Stories: And How to Tell Them We cannot wonder at the skeptical smile which in certain quarters is sure to greet each new "How" to book as it issues from the press, for too many such books have seemed arrogant, and too many readers have assumed, to their eventual disappointment, that it is within the power of some omniscient author to disclose an infallible recipe for the successful practice of a given art. Of course no such thing is possible. There are no secrets that a painter, a writer or a story-teller can divulge but that may be, and in fact often have been, discovered at first hand by those who have added to their native gifts the devotion of intelligent practice. What is more, there are no fixed rules in art - in literary art especially - by which the would-be artist must be governed as he proceeds. What service, then, can the authors of a book of this kind hope to give to those who take it up expecting help? They can, after either personal experience or a wide and temperate study of the methods of others (or, better still, after both kinds of preparation), make a clear statement of the various methods used successfully by story-tellers - since that is the scope of this treatise.
