Learn about Barbara's story themes good
for other venues:
We Are Built From Dreams:
Humankind always has had dreams: from dreaming of a new homeland, and traveling to far, far distances. Join Barbara Kellogg as she shares the stories of “dreamers” who have shaped our country, and possibly your life. Also, those stories (fun or fiction) of
happenings while we are asleep, called “dreams.” Ages 3rd grade to adult, 45 minute performance
 When
Baboda Came to America: Your mother, grandmother, or great-grandmother, had this dream: going to America. What was it like to experience a voyage as a young woman immigrant? Why did she choose to
travel weeks on a ship in primitive conditions to arrive in a country where she didn’t speak the language, didn’t know the customs and usually did not know any other person. How did she survive? Join Barbara Kellogg for this personal story woven into a
presentation about immigrant women of 100 years ago. 30-45 minute performance, 4th grade – adult
Salt
& Pepper: Stories told on the front
porch. Ration stamps, young boys
doing a "good deed" creating an explosive situation and
folktales make this a "must hear" program for the older
generation. The folktales feature gray-haired heroes and
heroines.  Muggsie, Zippy, Freeman and Bear (stuffed friends) usually
join Barbara for hugs from the audiences before she shares this selection of stories, 45-60 minute program.
Stories
From Here To There: A potpourri of folktales from around the world, adapted to children or adult audience. Length of performance depends on audience:
30-45
minute program.
 Sharing
The Cookie: From Sharing a cookie,
to escalation of problem, to solving problems, this theme is PEACE.
Our story time ends with "The Legend of Sadako" as written by Elaine Wynne & Larry Johnson. For audiences 8 years to adult.
Pigs,
Paper Bags and Ponytails: This
performance by Barbara brings to life the great stories of
children's author, Robert Munsch. (Stories are told with permission of author.) This performance is especially appealing to children, grades K - 2.
Red,
White & Blue: Do you know the
composer of "God Bless America?" Who was the lady singer
who made the song popular? This is an intergenerational patriotic
tribute to our country
through story!
Ozark
Stories: "And the fiddle tune went up, up and mingled with the wind in the pines." Stories from the Ozark mountains of Missouri and Arkansas. 50 minute program
WWW
Women: No,
not a.website address, but a collection of stories about wise, wonderful, women. Women who were strong and brave, women of wonder, women of power—who persevered sometimes just for the adventure. Includes stories of females in myths and tall tales. Stories are from
1800’s to 2000’s. For all ages. Good for Women’s History month, Girl Scouts, Camp Fire Girls and other groups.
 Barbara’s
Bonus Bag of Stories: Every storyteller has their favorite stories. Barbara’s favorites include fun, serious, spiritual and healing stories, stories that do not fit into any particular theme. Her
choice stories offered in a 45- minute performance. Will adapt stories to age group.
A
Collection of Character Traits:
Stories that emphasize respect, patience, appreciation and integrity just
to name a few. Some stories are participatory, others are just good to
"sit and listen," to. Great for the elementary students second grade up to middle high.
