Storyteller entertains children with winter tales
Storyteller Paddy Lynn captivated children with her storyacting program Color My World on Tuesday at the Lake Villa District Library.
Fifty children and parents listened to and participated in three wintertime stories — “The Gingerbread Girl” by Lisa E. Campbell, “Stone Soup” by Ann McGovern and “The Mitten” by Jan Brett.
Children were excited as they acted out various characters, such as foxes and peasant girls, and objects, such as carrots and onions, in the stories as a part of the mini-plays at the library.
“The kids love it and eat it up. They want to get involved and go crazy and they are so excited to get up and be a part of the show,” Lynn said.
Several children acting as vegetables jump up and down during the reading of Stone Soup by Ann McGovern during the Color My World program Tuesday at the Lake Villa District Library with storyteller Paddy Lynn. Fifty people watched and joined in the fun as three wintertime stories were performed.
