Turtle Stories
in the Turtle Theater!
Turtle Tales Around the World is a program of folk tales all with Turtle being the main character. My pal Toby the Tortoise, helps me introduce the stories and their origins.   These stories hail from many cultures all over the world.  Some of these stories, I heard as a child.  I use sound effects and percussion instruments on each story.  I also include some musical games and participation songs.   This program is available for Summer Reading 2011 as well as any other time of year.  It can be set up on the grass outside, (weather permitting), or in a gym or other large room.  Inside setup requires gym mats to keep the turtle from flying away!  The tent made by the Nylon Zoo Company,  is 32' by 20' and 15' feet tall.

New Recording Available!
Turtle Tales Around the World is my newest recording.  I've been telling  these tales for many many years!  Click on the images on the right to enlarge the CD front or back.  There's a sample story to listen to as well.  "The Singing Turtle"
