By way of the tales he tells, Simon Brooks will lead you into his people and fairytale world, the place
adults huddle across the hearth to inform of unusual people, lengthy journeys, and stunning rewards,
and the place youngsters peer down from their sleeping loft to hearken to story after story. “Tales preserve
us human,” Simon tells us. Come share with him the magic that occurs if you open your
coronary heart to his world-wide tales of thriller, transformation, and surprise.
Since 1991, Simon Brooks has been telling to audiences all around the world. He has gained awards
for his storytelling albums from Storytelling World and Guardian’s Selection. His mission is to unfold
and share the artwork of conventional storytelling to a wider viewers. To point out the facility of—and wish
for—the traditional tales of people and fairy tales, myths, and legends. To encourage others to inform
their very own tales and their favourite people tales in a approach that’s inclusive to all folks of all perception
techniques. To maintain the artwork of storytelling alive in all communities. Go to Simon’s web site and hear
