Margaret Read MacDonald

    La Dott.ssa Margaret Read MacDonald viaggia per il mondo alla ricerca di fiabe popolari, trasformandole in narrazioni facilmente condivisibili che deliziano le famiglie. Il suo obiettivo è diffondere la gioia di una storia raccontata magnificamente, incoraggiando gli ascoltatori a mettere da parte i dispositivi e semplicemente a raccontare storie. Il suo background di bibliotecaria per bambini e il suo dottorato in folklore informano il suo stile narrativo giocoso e melodioso.
