I AM A STORY

A celebration of storytelling – from the past to the present and beyond.

From cave drawings to the invention of the printing press, and to our digital age, discover how a story has changed and evolved from the past to today. It has always been around, making us happy, sad, excited, or scared, and bringing people together. With simple text and delightful illustrations, Dan Yaccarino reminds us of the power of the story.
