Story Time at British Council : Socks Heaven (08/07/2012)

Sam had a super selection of socks and he wore a very nice pair each day. But one day some had gone missing and he was really sad. Where could they be? Join Sam on a fantasy journey to find his lost socks in Pauline Young's delightful and imaginative mystery Socks Heaven about the experience of 'lost and found'.

Pauline Young will read the story and lead the children on a fun journey of discovery with games, songs and arts and craft activities using socks.

About the storyteller:

Pauline Young  is an avid storyteller who enjoys telling stories to adults and children alike. She started reading and telling animated stories to her two sons when they were 6 months old.  She wrote Socks Heaven in order to teach them a variety of basic concepts through fun stories rather than by rote. When her boys began to read on their own, she brought her ever-growing passion for picture books to volunteer reading at public libraries. While occasionally telling her favorite tales in local schools and community centers, Pauline also travels frequently between the United States, China and Hong Kong, spinning stories into speeches and workshops in her capacity as a training consultant. Pauline has a BA degree in English and an MBA from San Francisco State University.  She currently lives in Hong Kong.
