A Children's Librarian wrote, May 11, 1999:

"Great resource for librarians, teachers, parents. I have seen Hiroko Fujita tell stories and she is amazing! Adults, teens, and small children are fascinated her stories, and intrigued with the toys and props she makes to enhance them.

"This book, edited for American audiences by nationally-known storyteller Fran Stallings, is a treasure trove of ideas. From milk-carton frogs to origami, the props are easy to make and extremely effective when used to tell the stories. The ideas can be easily adapted to other stories as well. Well worth the money."
