Stories and Story-telling by Angela M. Keyes
"Stories and Story-telling" by Angela M. Keyes is a collection of instructional essays and tales that appears to have been written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the significance of storytelling in education, particularly for children, advocating for its integration into the teaching process to enhance creativity, imagination, and moral understanding among young learners. At the start of the book, Keyes emphasizes the importance of storytelling as an art
form and a pedagogical tool, addressing its historical decline among adults but asserting its vital role for children. She outlines how stories can delight, enlighten, and cultivate emotional intelligence, suggesting that storytelling serves both as a way to nurture the imagination and as a bridge to more serious literary pursuits. Alongside theoretical discussions, the opening portion provides a glimpse of various stories to be presented, such as a tale about a blacksmith and an elf, illustrating the essence of engaging narratives that foster a child's growth and learning.
