I love reading aloud. And telling stories.
As a parent it was my joy to entertain my kids with stories.... so I had to come up with many different voices, accents, expressions, oh and used puppets...
I still tell stories at different events, even with puppets. I love to research old myths and legends to retell to adults. My story telling, I assure you, is not for children anymore!!
When I read to my lovers, it is with voices and expressions. Trying to engage the imagination and the senses.
I also enjoy reading together. My favorite time EVER is lying in a tent while it is raining outside. Listening to the rain, snuggling deeper into the sleeping bag, snackies and a hot cup of coffee. (in my uber large Tim Hortons Mug I might add!!)
