First 100 Stories for Story Listening Stories Beniko Mason First
First 100 Stories for Story Listening stories Beniko Mason first I have been telling fairy tales and folktales from around the world in class as an English lesson since 1990. The combination of listening to stories and reading books has helped my students do well on tests without output or grammar studies. Story- Listening is so powerful that students improve rapidly in listening comprehension and acquire many words. There are countless stories in the world, but I happen to like Grimm Brothers’ house- hold tales. Almost all stories start with, “Once upon a time…” “Once upon a time there was a rich king.” “Once upon a time there were three brothers.” “Once upon a time there was a soldier.” They always start with an introduction of a main character. These stories are very suitable for story-listening lessons in different ways. The stories have interesting content; they are written in rich language; there are many different situations, problems, and characters; and they have stood the test of time. I have gathered here the first 100 easier stories for you to choose from to use for your classes. I will only give you the titles. You can download them from any sites that have the collection of Great Grimm Brothers’ household tales. These stories are not just for children. They deal with many different themes that children may not understand yet, such as deception, loyalty, and true love. Thus, story-listening is not just for children, but for adults also. Story-Listening can be used for any age and also at any levels of proficiency.

Grimm Brothers' Fairy Tales
2 The Story Behind the Grimm Brothers’ Fairy Tales Once upon a time there were two brothers who lived in a small kingdom in the middle of a crazy patchwork of other small kingdoms, each with its own prince or archduke to rule it. Some of these kingdoms were so small the princes could fire at each other from their castle walls. The two brothers – named Jakob and Wilhelm Grimm – were the eldest of a family of six, all boys except for the youngest who was a girl named Lotte. Next door to the Grimm family lived a family of six girls and one boy named the Wilds. They lived side-by-side on week, Jérôme played leapfrog in his the Marktgasse in the medieval quarter underwear with his courtiers through of a town named Cassel, famous for its the empty halls of the palace, then palace set in vast gardens and forests. spent a fortune ordering new furniture from Paris.

“Eating Sugar”: Gastronomical Narratives in Children's Literature
UGC Approval No:40934 CASS-ISSN:2581-6403 HEB “Eating Sugar”: Gastronomical Narratives in CASS Children's Literature Ahona Das and Shreya Laik MA Students, Jawaharlal Nehru University and University of Hyderabad (respectively) Address for Correspondence: [email protected] ABSTRACT: Food has always been one of the primary indices of life. From the smell of the choicely delights in Red Riding Hood's basket that drew in the big bad wolf, to the poisoned apple of revenge in Snow White that almost drew in her death, from the magic pumpkin-turned-carriage in Cinderella to the inexhaustible porridge-pot in The Sweet Porridge, from Alice's tea-party in Alice in Wonderland to the cosmos of sugary servings in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, from the cottage of confectionary delights in Hansel and Gretel to the shower of snacks in Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, gastronomical experiences have trickled into the very heart of children's literature, weaving a scrumptious labyrinth of food, parallel and pervasive to the universe of children's ﬁction. A large portion of children's literature (nursery rhymes, fairy tales, and children's novels) from “Hot Cross Buns” and “Pat-a-cake”, to the Harry Potter and Famous Five series have narratives revolving around food. As sing song and simple as they may be, these gastronomical pieces have origin in societies of feudalism and poverty and have religious and commercial undertones. Here, we seek to follow the breadcrumb trail of culinary narratives in children's literary ﬁction and trace the meanings they accrue, the impressions they leave and the moral politics they convey, of the socio-cultural realities of their times.

Choosing Fairy Tales for Different Ages
CHOOSING FAIRY TALES FOR DIFFERENT AGES Joan Almon Deciding which fairy tales are appropriate for which age group is a problem which faces every kindergarten teacher as well as every parent who wants to offer fairy tales to children. Over the years, with the experience of actually telling the tales to children, one develops a "sense" for this, but in the beginning some guidelines may be of help. Among the fairy tales, there are stories of varying degrees of complexity. At the simplest level there is the "Porridge Pot", while a considerably more complicated story is the beautiful French tale of "Perronik", the simpleton in quest of the grail who must overcome seven difficult obstacles. The latter is a tale for the elementary school child, perhaps just as he is leaving the world of fairy tales around age 9, while the former little tale is a delight to three year olds as their first fairy tale. They enjoy hearing of the little pot, so full of abundance, which overflows for lack of the right word. At this age the children themselves have a sense of life's eternal abundance which one child expressed to her mother in this way when her mother said she did not have enough time to take the child out to play: "But Mother, I have lots of time. I’ll give you some." In almost every fairy tale there is either a problem which must be solved, such as how to get the porridge pot to stop cooking, or a confrontation with evil, which can take many forms, such as the Queen in Snow-White or the various monsters which Perronik encounters.

Little Brother & Little Sister : and Other Tales
« > 1 Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2018 with funding from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill https://archive.org/details/littlebrotherlit00grim_1 Little Brother and Little Sister constable -&-cz up LONDON V First Published 1917 Printed in Great Britain ) PUBLISHERS’ NOTE These forty stories, chosen and illustrated for this edition by Arthur Rackham, together with the selection which we published some years ago with illustrations by the same artist, make a total of one hundred stories which include, it is thought, all the best of the Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm. Of the remainder most are probably of interest rather to students of folklore than to the girls and boys of to-day, and many are little more than variants or similar tales from other sources. The story called 4 The Nose Tree ’ has been more or less re-written from the rather abridged form among the notes where alone it is included in the original. And in adapting it and the other stories from the German text, the publishers have to acknowledge the permission of Messrs. George Bell and Sons to make use of Mrs. Hunt’s translation in Bohn’s Standard Library, which Messrs. Bell claim to be the only complete English rendering of the original with the notes and comments of the Brothers Grimm. a 2 v Contents I’AGE LITTLE BROTHER AND LITTLE SISTER . 1 SNOW-WHITE AND ROSE-RED . 9 SWEET PORRIDGE ....... 16 THUMBLING’S TRAVELS ...... 17 THE SKILFUL HUNTER ...... 22 THE TRUE SWEETHEART ...... 29 THE TWELVE BROTHERS . 36 THE THREE SPINNERS ...... 44 THE STAR-MONEY ......
