Cinderella Spinderella – Live Video – Elementary

This video is from my mini-Binghamton Tour a while back.
There were about 300 young people, all of them very enthusiastic!

One note: I’ve found that some parents get upset with the accident at the beginning of this version. Since then, I’ve tended to omit it. In the book, we moved it several pages in.

Chiri Bim – a story for peace through music

One of my “jobs” as a storyteller is to discover the origins of ideas. “Chiri Bim” was one of my favorite songs growing up, because I didn’t  need to learn any other words.  It’s featured in my book Stories for Peace and it’s part of my new program “From Many, One.” I’ve told this story in churches and synagogues, community centers and schools, theaters, festivals, coffee shops and even in an Irish pub!

A word of warning, the video and sound quality is about what you’d expect from somebody holding a phone up at the back of a coffee shop…
