The Storytellers

(4) K-3 While walking with his grandfather through the markets of Fez, Morocco, Abdul notes how much better their own job is than the ones done by others. Mid-book, the two stop to set up shop--they earn their keep by storytelling. Watercolors capture the life of the city, but the travelogue-like text would have benefited greatly from a dose of the storyteller's magic.
