Comments from people who have used this material:
Storytelling is a great way to develop vocabulary, comprehension and
reading skills. Each story in English in Action Storyteller has
application to real life in any culture and also provides opportunity to
discuss spiritual issues."

We used English in Action Storyteller at our family English
camp where we had over 180 in attendance. I found the techniques of
weaving Bible stories with modern stories a very dynamic way to teach
English.
