Celebrating World Storytelling Day
Saturday, March 16th @ 11 am
Ages 4 and above
Hippocampus, in association with Karadi Tales and The Book Lovers’ Program for Schools, invites you to a storytelling session on World Storytelling Day.
Come join us as we tell you a story that’s all about the importance of storytelling!
The Story and the Song is based on a South Indian folktale of the oral tradition about sharing stories and music. The story brilliantly emphasises the importance that art and stories play in our lives. In its own subtle way, the book breaks gender stereotypes among children. This book is now distributed throughout North America and widely recommended in libraries, schools, and parenting journals for its multicultural values.
This Tamil folktale adapted for children by Manasi Subramaniam is illustrated by Ayswarya Sankaranarayanan.
On World Storytelling Day, as many people as possible tell and listen to stories in as many languages and as many places as possible, during the same day and night.
