? Peuvent-elles créer des frayeurs inutiles? Risquent-elles de lui faire perdre le contact avec la réalité, l'amenant à vivre dans le monde de l'imaginaire ? Par ailleurs, les histoires favorisent-elles un intérêt ultérieur pour la lecture ? Comment les choisir ? Quelle est la différence entre un conte, une fable, une légende ? Quelles sont les conditions de succès d'une histoire ? Vaut-il mieux la lire ou la raconter dans ses mots ? Pourquoi le rituel du coucher inclut-il très souvent la lecture d'une histoire ? Comment peut-on utiliser les histoires dans les garderies ? Et à la maison ? Le présent ouvrage répond de façon remarquable à ces questions et souligne le rôle essentiel des histoires dans la vie de l'enfant. En annexe, six histoires inédites destinées aux enfants, certaines pour les tout-petits, d'autres pour les enfants d'âge scolaire." -- 4e de couvThe Pied Piper of Hamelin
