Sac County libraries were treated to a storytelling program by Ms. Cynthia Dobson from Santa Fe, New Mexico. She told a variety of stories from native American myths to those of different countries. One story involved her use of a string trick. Children from all 8 county libraries got to pick an item from her special bag of props. Each item represented which story she would tell. She added some audience participation at times to get listeners involved. With so much emphasis now on technology, live storytelling is becoming a rare art but for those who know to appreciate it, the experience is worthwhile.
