“Storytelling strengthens the imagination. To imagine is to envision, to see with the inward eye. This ability to imagine is the basis of all creativity. Creativity is being able to see beyond what is readily apparent. It is seeing a new answer to an old problem.” ProblemEyeAbleImaginationAbilityAnswersCreativityImagineSeeingBasesStorytellingInward Author:Carol Birch
“Mr. Jamrach led me through the lobby and into the menagerie. The first was a parrot room, a fearsome screaming place of mad round eyes, crimson breasts that beat against bars, wings that flapped against their neighbours, blood red, royal blue, gypsy yellow, grass green. The birds were crammed along perches. Macaws hung upside down here and there, batting their white eyes, and small green parrots flittered above our heads in drifts. A hot of cockatoos looked down from on high over the shrill madness, high crested, creamy breasted. The screeching was like laughter in hell.” FirstsEyeWhiteRoomsHellBloodBeatsLaughterBirdRedMadnessHotBlueGreenMadWingsRoundsBarsGrassBreastsYellowHungRoyalHere And ThereNeighbourUpside DownGypsyParrotsBattingCrimsonMenagerieRoyal Blue Author:Carol Birch
