Listen, Draw & Tell

Children's book author GEORGE SHANNON of Bainbridge Island, Washington, leads a group of 4 - 6 year olds in a story telling session. He collaborates with the children and inspires them to supply plot elements to the tale. After, they each pursue their own imagined endings to the tale in drawings they create. Mr. Shannon shares his views and observations on how kids develop story telling skills, which grow into problem solving talents as their minds and intellects mature.
