Reading skills is the mother of all skills

 

Reading skills is the mother of all skills. What ever you will be doing in your life, good reading skills will be the foundation to success.

 

Storytelling has always been a way of sharing joy, warmth and wisdom. It has always been cherished by all cultures and ages universally throughout history.

 

My stories promote elevation and tranquillity through the expression of entertainment.

REVIEW

Printed in The JC July 17, 2009.

 

"Children love to be read a fairy tale. And most adults love to read them to the kids. But when you have lost your voice, or inclination, there is Benjamin Kurzweil. His CD, Kurzweil Stories, features the Danish storyteller interspersing his own tales with those of his more famous compatriot, Hans Christian Anderson. Kurzweil comes off surprisingly well in the comparison but they may not appeal to very young children."

The stories are meant to be heard, not read.

 

It would be like reading the words of a song,

  

without listening to them being sung.

"I was surprised how suitable the stories were for grown-ups as well as for children. Not being a Danish speaker I had never read the original stories and therefore was never aware of this fact."

Yoke or Joke?

 

When life is a burden,

and a heavy yoke,

 

it can be eased for certain,

with a little joke.
