Book Description
The stories which are given in the following pages are for the most part those which I have found to be best liked by the children to whom I have told these and others. I have tried to reproduce the form in whihc I actually tell them--although that invariably varies with every repetition--feeling that it would be of greater value to another story-teller than a more closely literary form. My hope is that this book may be of use to those who have much to do with children. -- Preface.

Book Description
"It enters on a mission of cheerfulness that has our best wishes...The art of storytelling is one of the most delightful accomplishments. Miss Bryant's book shall increase the interest in cultivating it." -The Unitarian Register "She is an expert on the likes and dislikes of small boys and girls." -The Christian Advocate "An attractive, handy-sized book which will be very interesting to all teachers and mothers. Miss Bryant is uncommonly well qualified to explain this art to others by virtue of her long experience as a teller of stories to audiences of young people and as a lecturer upon methods to their elders. How Miss Bryant appeals to her hearers is evidenced by one rather unusual experience. Her first professional engagement was with a large club in the suburbs of Boston, by whom she was very happily received. The next season she was engaged again - and also the following. Finally, the club made a practice of voting, at the annual meeting, 'to have Miss Bryant next year.' Other engagements of a similar sort have been in many places in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and Maryland. In most of these states, too, Miss Bryant has spoken before state institutes and teachers clubs." -The Interior "A very clever presentation of the psychology of the art of telling a story. The book contains many suitable stories which will serve the purpose both of entertainment and education, and shows how to adapt to different grades of children's intelligence the stories which are too long or too difficult." -Publishers Weekly "Suggestive to mothers and teachers. Many sample stories are included." -The Outlook "Will guide the inexperienced into the art of storytelling." -The PTA Magazine "Every teacher who can tell a story has in her possession a magic wand by which inattention may be overcome, quiet restored or won, lessons sent home to hearts and minds, conscience stimulated and character built. Every teacher may learn to tell a story....How to Tell Stories to Children will give a basis for study. Then practice and more practice, with the frank criticism of other teachers, will develop the art. To gain the ability to tell a story well is worth real sacrifice on the part of any teacher. Can you make little faces glow with pleasure, eyes open wide with interest and grow serious over the victory or defeat of the story children? To be able to do it is worth the price you may have to pay." -The Church School Journal CONTENTS INTRODUCTION CHAPTER I THE PURPOSE OF STORY-TELLING IN SCHOOL CHAPTER II SELECTION OF STORIES TO TELL CHAPTER III ADAPTATION OF STORIES FOR TELLING CHAPTER IV HOW TO TELL THE STORY CHAPTER V SOME SPECIFIC SCHOOLROOM USES STORIES SELECTED AND ADAPTED FOR TELLING ESPECIALLY FOR KINDERGARTEN AND CLASS I.

Chivalric Stories as Children's Literature
Author: Velma Bourgeois Richmond
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786496223
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
Knights and ladies, giants and dragons, tournaments, battles, quests and crusades are commonplace in stories for children. This book examines how late Victorians and Edwardians retold medieval narratives of chivalry--epics, romances, sagas, legends and ballads. Stories of Beowulf, Arthur, Gawain, St. George, Roland, Robin Hood and many more thrilled and instructed children, and encouraged adult reading. Lavish volumes and schoolbooks of the era featured illustrated texts, many by major artists. Children's books, an essential part of Edwardian publishing, were disseminated throughout the English-speaking world. Many are being reprinted today. This book examines related contexts of Medievalism expressed in painting, architecture, music and public celebrations, and the works of major authors, including Sir Walter Scott, Tennyson, Longfellow and William Morris. The book explores national identity expressed through literature, ideals of honor and valor in the years before World War I, and how childhood reading influenced 20th-century writers as diverse as C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, Siegfried Sassoon, David Jones, Graham Greene, Ian Fleming and John Le Carre.

Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 440
Book Description
Christiane Brems, in collaboration with new coauthor Christina Rasmussen, introduces prospective and practicing clinicians to theories and principles of applied clinical work with children ages three to twelve years.

Chapters follow the logical development of clinicians, mirroring the natural flow of work with children.

Case studies showcase individualized and mindful treatment for each child with whom a clinician works. Outstanding Features of the Fourth Edition . . . · Essential attention to how clinicians’ self-awareness can lead to positive therapeutic relationships with children and their families. · Thorough discussions of the biopsychosociocultural model for conceptualization and treatment planning. · Emphasis on intensive assessment prior to treatment planning to address the needs of each child and family. · A compelling, practical exploration of mindfulness intervention with children. The authors’ methodology addresses the profound effects of the larger environment and culture on children. By adopting the authors’ integrated approach, clinicians are better able to understand important and complicated aspects of a child’s and family’s life. From there, compassionate, thoughtful, and relevant intervention ensues.
