I meant to do this last week... but a week is a long time in swimbridge.Stone Soup Story Teller - Home Grown Kids

Wasn't this guy amazing? I so enjoyed the time I was able to spend in his company - how blessed we were to have a good story teller come to visit. - especially one in leather trousers..

I can't remember when I laughed so much (not at the trousers, they were seriously serious).

A professional weaver of wonderful tales, a bard in the ancient magical sense, a trickster and an entertainer who brought some real life to our children's ears - I loved him.

I hope he inspired the youngsters as much as he inspired me... Trish

Stone Soup Story Teller - Home Grown Kids

"Story Teller. What a fella!
An Irish Dartmoor Dweller... Or was he really the unnamed soldier?!
A shaven head, neatly clipped nails, smart red coat, and a feather in his hat... Maybe we'll never know?!
But there's one thing we are sure of, and that's how together we circumnavigated the world!
From R.D. Blackmore's Exmoor, the Doone Valley and Highwayman Tom Faggus, to the animal kingdom of the West Indies, with an evolutionary thirst for fire.
Can Miss Spider really bring back the 'red flower'? From a Native American 'Indian' hare, who's talent for shape-shifting enabled him to triumph in outwitting the fox, to the African continent where inanimate objects never stopped talking - not even to the King himself!
Tales and characters to enchant and beguile us - we met them all. And even invented a few of our own!
Has Jack, or should I say 'James' finally devoured an entire underwater crop of Devonian chocolate pears??? And has anybody seen a toothless dragon lately?... Who might just be living 'happily ever after'."
By Celia.X
