Handbook: Diverse stories for 1001 languages at bilingual-picturebook.org

‘People think in stories. Basically, we are homo narrans. We tell our own story that defines us. In a picture book workshop, the children not only learn how to tell a story, but how to tell their story together. The adults can show them what it feels like to trust their own ideas.’
All the experience and knowledge about storytelling and how children can be helped to visualise their wealth of ideas is now available in a 70-page brochure. Yay! The guide for educators shows you why picture books in as many languages as possible are so important, why a diverse treasure trove of stories is needed and also contains practical tips and inspiring methods. 
Martin and Christina take you through the entire process of a story workshop: from the initial idea to the development of text and images to the moment when the finished picture book goes on its journey - in many languages, to young and old story explorers!

The brochure is available in German for €5 in the Bücherpiraten shop.
