TOUCH MAGIC . . . PASS IT ON Jane Yolen Stories

Touch Magic . . Pass It On offers engaging tales written by Yolen and retold by Burch--two talented people who pass on the magic of stories in the spirit of the oral tradition. This fine sampling of Yolen’s original tales, including “Sleeping Ugly,” “Princess Heart O’ Stone” and the “King’s Dragon,” is given a superb interpretation by Burch, who has a special gift of drawing listeners of all ages into the storytelling circles she creates. Her voice is rich and clear; she adjusts the pace to allow the listener to savor humorous details and momentarily ponder thoughtful passages. Packaging notes list sources for the eight selections.
