Live storytelling - this summer

Storytelling for 3-8 year olds at nearly 50 sites across the City of Boston. As I have for the past 18 summers I will be a storyteller with ReadBoston.org's Storymobile. Here is an excerpt from a blog about the Storymobile experience contributed by OWD summer intern Nick Zaffiro: 

Storymobile events aren’t simply about gathering and entertaining children; instead, the program aims to inspire kids to be creative and imagine. That mindset is the bridge to literacy, which the program promotes by giving books to every child who attends.
“[The Storymobile] provides high quality literacy programming to low-income children throughout Boston in the summer, when children are most at risk,” says Katie Sullivan, who oversees ReadBoston’s Storymobile program..."

This wonderful work takes me all over the great city of Boston. The program features free storytelling every weekday for 4 weeks in day care centers, summer camps, libraries and parks. READ BOSTON Storymobile: Professional storytellers perform and each child gets a new, high quality, picture book.
