Let's Tell a Story! Fairy Tale Adventure by Lily Murray


Are you ready to go on an adventure? This book helps you create your own fairy tale story. You choose all the elements. The options are almost unlimited. (I'm including the back cover so you can see a little more information about the book and the creation process.)

Thoughts: This book is great! I can't wait for kids and parents to read this book and start creating their own stories. I'm also looking forward to using this book with kids when I focus on fairy tales. I'm going to take you through the process (simply) of creating a story. I'm just making the choices, not answering all the supplemental questions and describing everything. 

  • Which one of these heroes do you want to be? A bear 
  • What do you want to get dressed up in? (Choose as many as you like.) A satchel, a stripy scarf, a cloak, and a pair of glasses
  • Where do you want to go? To a magic waterfall
  • What do you need to take with you? (Choose three.) A map, a picnic basket, an umbrella 
  • Who will come with you? (Choose as many as you like.) An invisible friend, Little Red Riding Hood, a wise owl, Thumbelina 
  • How do you want to travel? On foot
  • Which route do you want to take? Down the otter river 
  • Who's there to greet you? (Choose as many as you like.) 12 dancing princesses, a lion, and a golden fish
  • What will you eat at the fairy tale feast? (Choose as many as you like.) Pancakes, porridge, hot cocoa 
  • Where's your hero hangout? A teapot
  • An enemy has appeared! Which one is it? A big bad bunny
  • There's a way out of danger! Which one will you choose? You put on a crafty disguise and clip away. 
  • Which one of these things will you choose as your reward? The power to become a mermaid
  • What happens next? Choose an ending for your tale. You decide to become a detective. 

I like to write stories and poems so I'm looking forward to fleshing out my story at some point. I can't wait to play with the other books in this series.
