Paperback. Zustand: Good. Winner of the Storytelling World Award Stop talking You're supposed to be working on language --overheard in an elementary classroom by award-winning writer and storyteller Donald Davis. From the moment they are born, we encourage children to talk. We enunciate for them, applaud their expanding vocabularies, and hang on their every word. That is, until they enter school. At that time, we expect them to stop talking and measure their language abilities through a new medium: writing. While the educational system focuses on the written product as the sole measurement of language development, many children fail to measure up to established standards. Why? Because, Davis observes, writing is not our first communications tool; for most of us it functions as a foreign language. The problem is, individuals are not capable of creating or thinking within a foreign language. Davis argues that we must step back into our familiar first language--the spoken word--as our creative medium and learn to translate into that new foreign language called writing. With enough success, writing will eventually become a second language instead of a foreign language. When we talk about language arts in our school, we focus on reading and writing instead of nourishing the whole oral and kinesthetic package that is our spoken language. Davis argues that talking and writing should not be mutually exclusive in language development. In this book, he lays out the method he has used successfully in countless residencies at schools across the United States, working with adults, teens, children, and teachers to develop their personal writing style. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. An Appalachian Folktale retold by Donald Davis In this award-winning home-grown version of The Three Little Pigs, the villain is, naturally, a fox - the Appalachian red fox, who any local hunter will tell you is a worthy and cunning opponent.

The bright watercolors depict a clever fox and capture the eastern mountain terrain that has shaped this unique version of a well-known tale. This Appalachian story about three clever pigs will teach readers the importance of courage, respect and resourcefulness.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Experience flashes of recognition in moments that transcend Donald Davis's childhood stories. Maybe it's because his mother was a teacher. Or maybe it's because he has spent most of his life in classrooms - as a wide-eyed first grader, a na ve college student, a seminarian, and now as a visiting writer in residencies across the country. There's something about school that infuses the work of Donald Davis and he has collected his all-time favorite school stories in the book. Whether we're traveling around the world with Miss Daisy, the fourth grade teacher who was integrating arithmetic, geography and English before the term whole language ever surfaced; or watching in awe as a classmate conjugates malaprops in Miss Vergilius Darwin's Latin class; or driving a school bus and learning about segregation - we experience flashes of recognition in moments that transcend Donald Davis's childhood stories. These coming of age tales will teach readers the importance of caring, citizenship and respect. …
