Annotation

Seasoned storyteller MacDonald offers helpful information for the use of folktales in performance. She includes basic start-up information on how to find stories, learn them, look at them critically, network with other storytellers, and create a storytelling event. There are tips on performance style, and a thorough bibliography. She includes 12 tales that will work for the first-time teller, culled from the folklore of Angola, Canada, Ghana, Nigeria, Siberia, Wales, and Zaire.
