His seamless delivery and enchanting ability to tell a great tale allows him to weave important character development and historical fact into wonderful stories that listeners are happy to enjoy. Jim and his wife, Randy, were pioneers in the field when they began the journey of bringing stories to children via audio. It’s hard to remember, but there was a time before Audible ;).

Join us today as Jim talks about why oral stories matter so much and are worth including in our homeschool. Listening to stories is such a beautiful benefit for our outside-the-box kiddos. his storytelling, Jim makes these timeless tales accessible to kids who might not otherwise be able to enjoy them independently.

In this episode you’ll hear:

  • why stories matter so much
  • how you can include Jim’s audios into your homeschool teaching
  • why teaching through stories is so powerful
  • how storytelling makes these great lessons and tales accessible to our outside-the-box kiddos
