Meet Our Storyteller

Scroll down to red lettering for virtual Black History presentations.

Since 1995, our storyteller has presented over 300 programs to thousands of children in elementary schools, public libraries, Head Starts, Montessori Centers, and middle schools across America.

In Alabama, California, Ohio, Mississippi, Wisconsin, New York and Michigan, her unique storytelling style, combining music, authentic artifacts, audience participation and lots of children’s literature has been well-received by principals, librarians and the enthusiastic listeners, the children.

For three consecutive years, the Farmington Hills Public School District (Michigan) booked our storyteller for EVERY elementary school. Year after year, she returned to these schools sharing creative multicultural stories and ethnic information. To schedule a storytelling assembly program on site at your location, call (734) 252-9010.

“We loved having you at our library to acknowledge “March is Reading” month. Your presentations are always excellent. You have a very special way of combining storytelling with music and realia. I especially like the many different activities that you include, and the way you keep the children actively involved at all times. I always pick up good teaching techniques from you as I watch you present. And I surely admire your enthusiasm and positive attitude! Keep in touch. We’ll want to have you return again.” – DB, Head of Youth Services, Royal Oak Public Library, MI..
