A regular stand in for my son and I. Obviously some racist and colonialist tones, but even those make for important conversations.
That mesmerizing rhythmic bumpity-bump of words, a song (almost), the lure of the storyteller, one extraordinary ordinary thing next to another extraordinary ordinary thing, a line of events unexpected yet just right, silly and serious—that's Just So Stories.
