Flannel board storytelling is a warm, intimate, wonderful way to share a story. The author has created patterns for 28 folktales, poems, and songs, 'Five Enormous Dinosaurs,' 'The Strange Visitor,' 'The Princess and the Pea,' and 'The Little White Duck' among them. Briggs shows how to make a flannel board and story figures, includes time-saving lists of materials needed and color suggestions with each story, and gives simple directions for successful storytelling.
