   2.3-ENG/Storytelling: "Steff Finds a Friend's" Goes to School! Learning a foreign language and all about friendship with "Steff Finds a Friend"

   Description: My children's book, "Steff Finds a Friend" had the honor of being the focus of a German 5th Grade 2 week Workshop . The kids used the Story to work on their English and discuss Friendship. Even the kids could get familiar with storytelling and a start in creative writing and discussion. Meet their teacher, Petra Falterbaum as she describes the value of using our story, Steff in making learning English as a foreign language fun. One can imagine, why not the German version to teach kids around the world learning German as well as English as a foreign language with a similar format? Petra describes how her students embraced the concept using the eBook on their tablets and the fun interactive experience.
