“I've loved fairytales, folklore and mythology since I was a small child, and I think it was inevitable that they would influence my style and my development of stories.” ThinkingChildrenStoriesInfluenceStyleDevelopmentMythologyInevitableFairytaleFolkloreSmall Child Author:Juliet Marillier
“I usually make up stories for my kids.I like to tell them stories and make up any kind of crazy to involve them in characters. The kind of fairytales I don't like are the ones with happy endings, where there's just good and evil and things are perfect. I think when there's a good story for children it has a moral tale, so that's what I try to teach my kids.” ThinkingTryingKindChildrenCharacterStoriesKidsEvilPerfectMoralTeachCrazyTalesGood And EvilHappy EndingsGood StoryFairytale Author:Angelina Jolie
