Children of all ages enjoy hearing a story read to them—sometimes the same one over and over. Reading aloud is more than reading words. It involves some simple theatrical skills by using your voice to sound like a character in the story. This makes the story come alive and is more interesting to the child. The stories in this book are appropriate for all ages, from preschool through adulthood. Some of the stories are funny or silly, some may touch a child’s heart, and some provide information a child may not know. But all of the stories are enjoyable. There may be times when reading a story is not possible, like while driving a car or walking through a store. That’s when the story can be told, using your own creative adaptations. Whether you read or tell a story, make it a fun time for you both. Enjoy the stories!

Born into slavery in 1815, Henry Brown escaped to freedom by arranging to have himself mailed from Virginia to Philadelphia in a wooden crate-3 ft. x 21/2 ft., x 2 ft.-after 33 years of slavery. The trip took 27 hours during which he endured discomfort and pain. Henry became a noted abolitionist speaker and later a showman, and writer of his own autobiographical narrative, published in 1849 in Boston, which provided the core for this book. Judy Wolfman, retired elementary teacher, authored the Life on a Farm series; 40 scripted folktales and legends in How and Why Stories for Readers' Theatre; two historical fictions-Not My Time, the true story of a Holocaust survivor; The Long Escape! about Chinese immigrants smuggled to America in 1992; nine children's plays, and many magazine stories, articles and poems. She is a professional storyteller, public speaker, and conducts workshops on writing and storytelling. Brett Greiman, a graduate of the York Academy of Arts, is an artist, illustrator, and graphic designer. His paintings and murals can be found in private, museums, and corporate collections.
