"Tell Me Another Story: The Book of Story Programs" by Carolyn Sherwin Bailey is a collection of educational story programs written in the early 20th century. This work is designed to cultivate children's mental growth through a series of carefully curated stories that correspond with their developmental interests.

the book lays out the intent and structure behind the collection of stories, emphasizing how the arrangement is meant to support specific cognitive functions in children. Bailey explains the psychological principles behind storytelling and how certain stories can inspire reasoning, imagination, and emotional connections in young listeners. The beginning also introduces examples of story programs that follow a systematic progression, detailing how each story serves a distinct purpose—capturing attention, fostering reasoning skills, and providing calming closure, which all aim to satisfy children's innate desire for engaging tales.
