Storytelling at Widnes

National Storytelling Week starts on 29th January. As part of the celebrations, Paul Langford is coming to Widnes library to read extracts from 'The Goalkeepers Revenge and other stories' by Bill Naughton.

Described as “One of the greatest collections of children's stories ever written, recalling times and places from our past where the pace of life was so different from the hectic world we rush around in today.” “Charming, funny , dark & uplifting The stories are charming, funny, dark and uplifting and crackle with life and the inside knowledge of a bygone age”

An extract from the Society for Storytelling

"Storytelling can be found enriching lives everywhere: from nurseries to schools, from bereavement aids in hospitals to strengthening communication in the business sphere, from reminiscence centres to support groups for those with special needs, and in theatrical performances. The sharing between teller and listener empowers, feeding the imagination from one generation to the next."
