- About The Storyteller with Eleven Children
I haven't seen anyone apply a glittery substance on the collar, sleeves or hem of a storyteller before, lending a festive quality.
This storyteller's long thick braid is distinctive. Slip application is decidedly adept as well. Her squash blossom necklace is perfectly positioned.
