Book excerpt: Readers Theatre in Rhyme features 22 reproducible tales scripted in rollicking and sometimes whimsical rhythms and rhymes. These include well-known traditional tales from around the world and a modern version of an urban Red Riding Hood adapted from a story written by a young Manitoba author. Using these scripts is an engaging way for older and younger readers alike to work in a collaborative learning environment and to learn the importance of critical listening. Teachers will enjoy the unique approach to instruction. These scripts are invitations to all--the struggling reader, the ESL learner, and the most competent reader in the class.
