Finding, learning, performing, and using folktales.For those who want to begin storytelling but don't know where to start, The Storyteller's StartUp Book offers everything one could ask for. Margaret Read MacDonald, an awardwinning folklorist and children's librarian who is also a touring storyteller, offers basic startup information on finding stories, looking at them critically, starting a "story bank," networking with other storytellers, and creating a storytelling event.In chapters on learning and performing folktales, MacDonald offers the reader suggestions for finding his or her own performance style. Most importantly, MacDonald presents twelve foolproof tales that will work for the firsttime storyteller. Arranged in ethnopoetic style to relay a sense of rhythm, the stories encourage audience participation and feature enough repetition to make them easy to remember.These multicultural tales selected from the folklore of Angola, Canada, Ghana, Nigeria, Siberia, Wales, and Zaire will delight any audience. Includes excellent bibliographies to help the new teller continue to explore the world of storytelling.
