Molly's House: The story of an old house and the girl who lived in it, plus a bonus Draw and Tell story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798718018554)

This fully illustrated children's picture book tells the story of a girl who doesn't appreciate just how special her old house is. As with all of Barbara's other original full color picture books, this one concludes with a bonus draw and tell story that relates to the plot of the main story. It also includes instructions and a big traceable drawing to help any novice learn how to use this traditional storytelling technique to successfully tell a draw and tell story. Draw and tell stories are simple stories for young children. These drawing tales are very easy to use and require no special materials or experience. As each draw and tell story is told, its characters and objects are sketched onto a single sheet of paper, while children look on. These simple elements build up on the drawing until, by the time the story ends, a composite picture representing the subject of the story has emerged, much to the children's delight. The draw and tell form of storytelling is great for parents, teachers and children's librarians. Author Barbara Freedman-De Vito has been creating and using draw and tell stories for many years in her work as a children's librarian, freelance storyteller, teacher and workshop leader.
