Reading to my Kids, Storytelling Workshop Is a workshop for parents who want to learn how to share the joy of books with their children. A child who is used to open the covers of a book, will be used to opening the doors of opportunity throughout it’s life. Fran’s storytelling workshops explore how narrative and structure work in making a story and are designed to capture the imagination of both higher and lower sets. They enrich vocabulary, exercise the imagination and germinate and interest in literature and reading. Children if they see
copy their you reading they
parents, will read.
