Autor Ms. Julie Moss Herrera
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 iul 2012 – vârsta ani
An American storyteller’s immersion In the Chinese folktale tradition“Having traveled on the same People to People Ambassador journey to China with Julie, I have seen Julie's anthology from inception to fruition. It is a masterful, engaging, informative and scholarly addition to our understanding and appreciation of Chinese culture, particularly storytelling and folk traditions, from ancient days to today. Practicing storytellers will especially appreciate her tips for telling and context clues at the end of each story.”

Notă biografică

Julie Moss Herrera, a professional storyteller with residences in Colorado and Florida, has maintained a special interest in the culture of China since childhood, in part because of a medical missionary to China who visited in her childhood home annually.  This book is a result of her participation in an International Ambassador program in 2008, a program that took her and otherAmerican  storytellers into Chinese oral traditional communities both rural and urban. ​ 

Recenzii

“Julie Herrera is just the right person to release this new collection of Chinese folktales. Her own sincere delivery of stories makes you feel as if you are a child listening to mom or grandma telling a favorite tale over and over. May her stories warm your heart as you read this wonderful book.”
 

“I like the stories so much!  They reminded me of childhood times sitting down in an afternoon listening to wonderful stories from adults.”
 

“How  beautifully Julie has  presented  the  flavor  of  our storytelling  journey to China  and  our new friends met along the  way!  I  am  charmed  how  she  related what  we  were  told  with  such  sincere  feeling. The storytelling tips are so helpful.  Readers will be inspired to use her folktales, adding  props  and  music of their own.”     
 

“Julie Herrera's collection of Chinese folktales brings back the sights and sounds of our wonderful storytelling trip to China. The lively tales offer a rich variety of telling styles and plots in a can't-wait-to-tell-that-myself format.  The storytelling tips were helpful and really made me imagine how the telling would bring the tales to life.  The background material in the preface and notes that accompany each tale are informative and deepen one's appreciation for the tales.”
 

“Herrera's grasp of the elegantly simple voice of contemporary Chinese storytelling enhances the universal essence of these traditional stories and demonstrates their place in modern everyday life in China.”
