On October 24, 2009 the first annual storytelling festival was held in Meridian, MS.
There was a fine line up of local and regional storytellers. It was my opportunity to share stories with the children. The audience enjoyed Scat the Cat - a participation story, The Old Lady and the Pumpkin - a folktale from Bangladesh, Anansi and the Common Sense, Popcorn - a Halloween story including a costume contest that guests helped stage, along with a drawing and cutting story. We all had a ball!
Check out their website: www.msstorytellers.com. I was able to complete an interview with June Davidson afterwards that is posted there.
