[LM_NET] HIT: cummulative stories

["McDaniel, Diane" <diane.mcdaniel@MIDWAYISD.ORG>]

Dear Members,

 

Thanks for your help in compiling a list of cumulative stories. Several
people asked for a hit, so here are the responses I received:

 

 

Lots of folktales are cumulative:  The Gingerbread Boy, The Old Woman
and Her Pig, and many others.  

 

Not exactly sure what you mean by cummulative stories.  But a WONDERFUL
story that includes musical instruments, in fact it was written in
orchestral form is Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf. You can download from
iTunes David Bowie & THE Philadelphia Orchestra have a wonderful album
to download for $9.99.  You can get the book through your regular
distributor or Amazon.com.  cb

 

This is the house that jack built.

There was an old lady who swallowed a fly.

 

Drummer Hoff is a good one.

"The Fat Cat"   It's also good for beginning storytelling; because of
the repetition it is easy to memorize.

 

Bringing the Rain to Kapiti Plain

I Know an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly

I Know an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie (this may not be the exact title;
author's last name is Jackson) 

The House that Jack Built Nancy

 

Stella Louella's runaway book-Lisa Ernst

 

The Napping House by Audrey Wood

The Gingerbread Boy

How about Stella Louella's Runaway Book by Lisa Campbell Ernst?

 

 

Thanks again,

Diane
