Program Description

Event Details

In this Japanese tradition, a professional storyteller reveals a series of illustrations contained in a storybox as the narrative unfolds.  Before TV & comic books existed in Japan, there was Kamishibai (kami = paper; shibai = theatre). With a wooden box, illustrations and a great narrator to tell the story, children will be enthralled with the stories and pictures! This program is recommended for children ages 0-8. 

Kamishibai Storytime is presented by Write Out Loud San Diego.
