Stories for health

Abstract

Describes how telling stories about health and illness can help children examine their own health, and ways of preserving it, by introducing a story‐telling project involving both adults and children. Outlines how the project was put into practice at school and in the home and the subsequent effects on the children. Concludes that the story‐telling approach has proved to be a valuable way of encouraging children to examine their own health.
