A Chalk Walk Into the Enchanted Forest: A Collection of Chalk Board Stories & Poems (Chalk Stories of the Enchanted Forest)

Creatures of the Enchanted Forest can be found throughout the world in every developing child's imagination. These creatures become the impetus for imaginative play - play that is the heart of learning! A Chalk Walk Into the Enchanted Forest is a compilation of stories told orally, or through puppetry, in a play-group setting. The accompanying chalk drawings serve only as backdrops to these stories, allowing the child to see events unfold in their own mind's eye. These simple, magical stories follow a theme of kindness and nature. They have been put to written word so that you, the parent, may read them, tell them, act them out, and even add to them. A squirrel with a yellow tail, a curious little fox who is anything she wants to be, a dragon that is happiest when asleep, and a gnome who is amused at his own poetry; these are just some of the creatures of the Enchanted Forest, introduced in this first book. Do you have your imagination on? Grab some chalk! Let's go! Jennifer Moore is a retired teacher, story-teller, grandmother and dabbler, (not necessarily in that order). A Chalk Walk Into the Enchanted Forest is her first children's book. In it, she shares the chalk drawings, stories and puppet shows she created for the homeschooled play group she runs with her daughter. She lives with her husband in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
