Children's Book Calls for "Telling With, Not Telling To" The value of reading has been instilled in children for centuries; its importance is already well-established. The merits of participatory storytelling are explored here. Author Teresa deBarba-Miller shares her passion in creating stories that encourage children to bring forth their ingenuity and creativity via their imagination in SANTA CLAUS IN LAUGHING VALLEY, featuring "Santa's Laughing Song," music and lyric by Thomm Morgan. This brilliant creative kicks off with a thoughtful and well-versed introduction by Laura Simms, a narrative therapist who won several awards such as the notable Brimstone Award for Engaged Storytelling and Sesame Street's award for work with children worldwide. For Simms, the experience of participation in telling stories truly generates happiness. "When we concentrate on the story and become responsible for bringing it alive, it takes us out of the concerns we have in our everyday life." Simms added, "There is renewed creative energy to find alternative ideas and meaning in one's life. The sound of the stories reconnects us to the song inherent in everything. One benefit is that joining-in generates social responsibility by reminding us we are able to respond." deBarba-Miller crafted SANTA CLAUS IN LAUGHING VALLEY. In this delightfully-spun tale, the youngsters' imagination will fire up as they take turns guessing what happens next to Saint Nick and his elves of Laughing Valley (way before the crew set foot at the North Pole) as five new miserable residents make the valley their nest, also. By turns timely and timeless, SANTA CLAUS IN LAUGHING VALLEY allows young readers to let their imagination wander and wonder, making way for a new generation of innovators and artists.
