What reviewers say about the Revised Edition of Storytelling For The Fun Of It: A Handbook for Children, by Vivian Dubrovin, published April, 1999, Storycraft Publishing.

             “…introduces boys and girls, ages 9 to 12, to the world of storytelling. It tells them how to find the right story to tell at camp-outs, slumber parties, workshops, heritage programs, and family gatherings. Storytelling For The Fun Of It tells how to create their own tales to use while traveling in the car or babysitting. Young storytellers will find tips to help them learn, practice and tell stories, get ideas for using costumes, puppets, music and crafts. The kids will discover the fun of storytelling parties, learn to start a storytelling club, and even organize a junior storytelling festival. Highly recommended.” A featured review in The Children’s Bookwatch of the Midwest Book Review, January, 1999.
