CREATIVE

STORYTELLING

TECHNIQUES

Mixing the Media with Dr. Caroline Feller Bauer

A color videotape presentation

In this lively, information-packed videotape Caroline Bauer draws upon her extensive experience as a practicing storyteller and innovative educator to demonstrate how to use effectively a variety of media—including handmade craft items, puppets, toys, and other simple props—to bring stories alive for audiences of all ages. She tells more than a dozen stories in the half-hour presentation—each dramatized in a different way. The viewer is told how to create the media used where possible and in all cases how to relate them to various stories. An audience of young children is included in the taping session to provide interaction with the storyteller.

Perhaps the best presentation of its kind anywhere, Creative Storytelling Techniques will give inspiration as well as practical information to parents, teachers, librarians, and volunteers whether they are beginning or experienced storytellers.
