Abstract

In this article I synthesize research on the importance of stories in classrooms, on storytelling form and how it differs from culture to culture, and on some implications of these different traditions of storytelling. I draw on qualitative and quantitative research. I conclude by proposing some ideas teachers might consider as they plan instruction on world literature and by offering directions for future research.
