Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Stories to Tell Children" by Sara Cone Bryant is a collection of children's stories written in the early 20th century. The book compiles fifty-four engaging tales, along with practical suggestions for storytelling, aimed at helping parents and educators captivate young audiences. The stories range from well-known fables to lesser-known folk tales, making it a versatile resource for those looking to enrich children’s literature experiences. At the start of the collection, the author explains the inspiration behind the book, rooted in requests from teachers for more stories to accompany her previous work, "How to Tell Stories to Children." She expresses a desire for the stories to stimulate pleasure and imagination among children while offering guidance for educators on effective storytelling techniques. The opening also provides an overview of the book's structure, touching on the importance of oral storytelling in teaching and the value of engaging children through imaginative narratives, setting the stage for the delightful stories that follow.
