Another thing is that it makes it easier to travel around the country and just have yourself as the storyteller without any extra things to carry. It makes it easier to move from class to class and I don't have to get 'changed'. I suppose it's a kind of laziness on my part but I can turn up and be ready in minutes. Reading stories from books is just as good and assuming and dressing as a character is great, it's just not something that I do very often.
You're right, a good storyteller doesn't need many props. A well told story will engage the child in such a way, that their own imagination provides all the props they need.

Thanks for the encouragement.
