The Story Ship flies into the future to hear a SciFi story based on an old Aesops Fable, "The Bundle Of Sticks." Kids at Centennial Elementary in Gainesville, GA wrote this story and recorded it in 2005. Today we learn about morals and wisdom tales and how many stories are the same story just told in a different place with different characters or at a different time. Join us for "Ice Breakers."

The Story Ship's Voyage 17 brings us to meet internationally known storyteller, Barry Stewart Mann. I think of Barry as the Ambassador Of Storytelling. He travels the world sharing our culture with others through storytelling.
In this episode, Barry tells us a wonderful story that he wrote years ago about letting go. "Good Grief The Leaf" was created for children but I think you will find this story has a special message that resonates really for adults.

This weeks Story Ship voyage takes us to Holly Springs, SC where we wrote poems and had a poetry slam. A poetry slam is when a group of poets get together and read their poems back to back. I found kids to be so insightful and very wise indeed.
