This week we have a very special episode because joining David, Simona and Alan for the podcast is storyman Andrew Wright.
We cover everything under the sun including - Story maps, the travelling storyteller across the world 55 countries and counting, Story men and women, ceilis in tents, the passing on of the tradition of being and becoming a storyteller, puppets from before the times of TV, being ageless and seeing eternity through stories, upbringing and connection to stories through childhood, selkies, busking around the world, and being travellers ourselves. Amazing!
Andrew has also kindly provided us with a copy of his new publication Story Poems, that teachers can use with students. If you do use these with students or in any other settings, get in touch with Andrew with the details below to let him know!

A Cornucopia of Tales and Tellers is a passion project brought to you by English teachers Alan and Simona, who want to create a compilation - or cornucopia if you will - of stories from all around the world and by as many tellers from around the world as possible. So grab a cup of tea, chai, water or uisce beatha, relax and enjoy hearing tales that have been handed down generations, or even ones that were dreamt up yesterday! Music by Purple Planet.
