By Mark, Peabody, MA

"read excerpts only: pg 1-26 151-163

Quite good at bringing your knowledge of story-telling to a child-like level, and not in a bad way. Paley does not try to dissect every single bit of what children say in their storytelling, but simply presents it in a way so that one can gain insight in to how important telling stories really is to her students."

"Another inclusion story from a talented teacher who is one of my favorites. Her ability to carefully observe and understand children is inspiring. The world needs far more of those."
